Charlie Evans could get any part in any movie he desired...except Julia's Love Affair, the story of a younger man falling in love with a woman his senior. He has the looks, the fame and more money than he knows what to do with. The writer of the coveted screenplay doesn't want Charlie in her movie. The ladies' man repulses her, but Charlie is relentless. His insistence that he play the part of Danny Jensen gives Gretchen an idea. She challenges Charlie to date an older woman and convince his fans that he's fallen in love with her. If he succeeds, she'll let him play Danny.
Charlie accepts the challenge, reluctantly at first. The thought of being with a woman who isn't a model or starlet is unappealing. But once he starts dating Madeleine Mozart, a middle-aged single mother of two, he learns that charm and looks and fame can't take him to the one place he needs to go: her heart.
