This delightful romantic comedy opens on a sad note when a successful Ad Agency executive loses his wife after 29 wonderful years. Beginning at her funeral, footloose women offer themselves in unique ways to attract the newly eligible "Catch," hoping to inveigle their way into his upscale country club lifestyle on Chicago's suburban North Shore. Using talents and skills, from culinary to erotic, they offer the widower "whatever it takes," requiring him to conserve his energy, especially his sexual energy, as he juggles the challenges of his new lifestyle. Meanwhile, a new executive at the Agency's largest client is herself a "Catch." A beautiful, financially successful single mom with a penthouse hi-rise condo, she is thrown into the widower's life by her blustery tycoon employer. Their antics while working together on two major ad campaigns nearly derail their careers and cause incredible chaos among their colleagues, friends and families.
