Annabella is so taken by Gillian’s paintings that she offers to showcase Gillian’s work at her gallery opening. A friendship blossoms. As the chasm between Annabella and Vincent grows wider the connection between the women deepens into a love affair. But as the title implies love can be a game and sometimes a complicated one.
