The synopsis is as follows: Alexis comes up with a plan, announcing on social media that she and Marco (Justin Berti) are getting a divorce to see which of her friends will try to steal her husband.
Meanwhile, an old flame comes back into her life as she returns to her former career as a hand model. Now, Alexis must learn the true meaning of trust, or fail at yet another marriage.
Nava and Ruben Islas wrote the screenplay, which was based on a story by Nava, Islas, Patrick Perez Vidauri, and Christina Urias. It was directed by Patrick Perez Vidauri. According to an article in Deadline, Samuel Goldwyn Films acquired this romantic comedy. Judging from its promo shots, it looks like there will be some dancing involved.
