A successful, wealthy businessman, Wesley Deeds (Tyler Perry) has always
done what’s expected of him, whether it’s assuming the helm of his
father’s company, tolerating his brother’s misbehaviour at the office or
planning to marry his beautiful but restless fiancée,
Natalie (Gabrielle union). But Wesley is jolted out of his predictable routine
when he meets Lindsey (Thandie Newton), a down-on-her-luck single mother who
works as a cleaning person in his office building. Outspoken, impulsive and
proud- and also recently evicted- Lindsey
struggles to make ends meet for herself and her young daughter. But when Wesley
offers to help her get back on her feet, his innocent good deed ignites and
unexpected attraction and suddenly Wesley finds himself caught between the life
he thought he wanted and the powerful desires of his heart.
