Yetta Yvette is a beautiful, intelligent, African American college student trying to earn her way through school. After being hired at a small trucking company run by "Mister" Dexter Gooding, a married man thirty years her senior, Yetta discovers they share a strong connection through his mentorship. One night after a late business dinner, they cross the line between professional and personal, and Yetta struggles to keep the relationship platonic. As time passes, Yetta gives in to her longing heart and they fall deeply in love, transcending their significant age difference. But, just as life pushes you up, it also pulls you down, and tragedy leaves Yetta heartbroken and alone, picking up the pieces.
