对于同异性的交往，外表英俊的汤姆（StephanLuca饰）有一个奇怪的原则，他并非不喜欢女人，只是两人之间的亲密接触最多只能有三次，即便有着这个不可打破的原则，汤姆的身边的女伴依然层出不穷。艾丽莎（MarleenLohse饰）是个漂亮女人，所以当她第一次出现在汤姆的面前时，汤姆就已经锁定了狩猎的目标。　　汤姆所在的公司面临着经济上的巨大危机，而汤姆即将谈判的生意成为了公司唯一的希望。没想到，这次的客户不是别人，正是曾经和汤姆有过一段露水情缘的旧情人。以此事为契机，汤姆和艾丽莎之间产生了隔阂。艾丽莎租的房子即将到期，无家可归的她被汤姆收留了。当这对恩怨颇多的男女住在同一屋檐下时，会发生怎样浪漫而有趣的事情呢？
