Sean McNamara and Christian Troy are two plastic surgeons running a partnership in Miami, Florida with different life issues. Sean is a wishy-washy, weak-kneed family man who distances himself with work to avoid his dysfunctional home life which includes his needy and spiteful wife Julia, his rebellious teenage son Matt, and young daughter Annie. The more slick Christian is an arrogant, narcissistic, unethical ladies man who worships wine, women, and the almighty dollar, and will do just about anything to get what he wants (lie, cheat, steal, blackmail, and seduce) and has no qualms about practically anything.—K. K. Wallace
