Lee Ramon has done well with renovation projects in the past, but coming off a loss, he desperately needs this project to work to avoid going bankrupt. Sparks fly when Marisa and Lee get trapped in an elevator together, but that's before the two of them realize that they are fighting on opposite sides of this battle. Can they work together to find a solution, or will they both lose everything - including a chance at love?
