Intelligent, charismatic, and successful, Val Nikolov has achieved everything he's ever wanted, thanks to a wish made on his grandmother's magical amulet. Alex Weaver, however, can't seem to get her life in order. As a temp-agency lawyer helping Val's company prepare to be acquired, Alex has no hope that she will ever land a full-time job as an attorney (or convince her boyfriend to marry her). When one of Val's key engineers abruptly departs, the acquisition is suddenly at risk. Hoping to salvage the deal, Val asks Alex to travel with him to Israel for a meeting with the decision-makers. The more time Val and Alex spend together, however, the more they question the things they thought were most important in their lives. Soon, they find themselves at a crossroads, having to choose between the lives they've always wished for and their hearts' true desire.
