Amanda – Ryan = Disaster Amanda + Ryan = Success Amanda + Ryan + Daddy Factor = Both?
Amanda Thorne was minus one husband; one she needed, since all her pals thought she already had one. Ryan West was plus one wife; one he didn't need but had at least on his bank records. That nonexistent wife's signature was essential for Ryan to put through a big deal. So Amanda plus Ryan –– a weekend in exchange for a signature –– could only equal success for them both, right?
Well, yes, but that was without the Daddy Factor.
