      Clare is getrouwd met Marc: knap, rijk en bijna tien jaar jonger dan zij. Wanneer er een prachtige tweeling wordt geboren, ontdekt Clare dat ze niet voor het moederschap in de wieg is gelegd. Zelfs Marc kan beter met de baby's omgaan dan zij. Ze is dan ook dolblij met de komst van Jenna, het kindermeisje dat haar hand er niet voor omdraait de tweeling schoon en gezond te houden, zodat Clare weer tijd heeft voor haar werk. Het duurt echter niet lang voor er een duistere rivaliteit in de kinderkamer ontstaat. En terwijl de situatie steeds meer uit de hand dreigt te lopen, beseft Clare dat ze uiterst pijnlijke beslissingen moet nemen over liefde, trouw en moederschap.
