Amanda vive a Los Angeles dove è il capo di una società che realizza trailer cinematografici. La sua vita professionale va a gonfie vele mentre la sfera privata è un disastro per via della sua tendenza a voler avere ad ogni costo il controllo sulle sue emozioni. Dall'altra parte dell'Oceano c'è Iris, una giornalista inglese di cronaca rosa che si innamora sempre delle persone sbagliate finendo per essere vittima dell'amore a causa della sua natura romantica. L'ennesima delusione sentimentale spingerà le due donne, così diverse fra loro, a sentire la necessità di un cambiamento netto. Grazie a un annuncio online decidono di scambiarsi l'abitazione per le vacanze, e a 6000 miglia di distanza da casa riusciranno finalmente a riappropriarsi della propria vita.
