When Evie (Eleanor Tomlinson) and Pete (Alfred Enoch) move into the upscale neighborhood with the dream of starting a family, they soon find friendship in the shape of the couple next door, alpha traffic cop Danny (Sam Heughan) and his wife, glamorous yoga instructor Becka (Jessica De Gouw). As time goes on, these two couples get increasingly close to each other and one fateful night, become sexually entangled in a way that will change their lives forever.”

Hopeful to soon start a family and live in their new, family orientated, and ideally safe neighborhood is their long term plan.
