Axel is a hitman. The best hitman. His secretive employers communicate via hidden messages in newspaper want ads. Axel is utterly hopeless with women, and is socially inept. He'll find his next kill much faster than finding a date for Saturday night.He longs to leave this solitary life and find that special someone.

Shane is a ladies man. A player. He sleeps all day (with various females) and DJs by night. Sounds like a perfect life, but Shane is jaded. He needs danger, excitement.

Elizabeth is the apple of Axel's eye. The object of his affection. Everyday he gets breakfast at the diner where she works as a waitress, but never utters one word more than it takes to place his order. But will all change, if Shane has anything to do with it.
