Four ambitious, sexy women who have been best friends since business
school -- Mia, Zoe, Juliet and Caitlin -- try to have it all. They aren't
just powerful and intelligent as singular executive sensations in a man's
world; they've bonded into a formidable unit - a female "boys'
club" -- to support and counsel each other through good times and
bad. How better to climb up the corporate ladder than with your buddies at
your side?
Set in glamorous New York City, where titans of media, finance,
advertising and publishing reside, these driven women, who daily share
their relatable and relevant problems dealing with both the boardroom and
bedroom, combine their smarts, wit and humor to deal with personal and
professional misfortunes and stunning triumphs. Whether it's coping with
rocky marriages, fending off scheming colleagues or just trying to find
themselves in the midst of chaotic lives, these compelling women use their
valuable friendship to keep centered.
