Everybody thought Shiloh and Cary would end up together – everybody but Shiloh and Cary. Slow Dance follows these star-crossed best friends from their inseparable teen years on the wrong side of the tracks to their far-flung adulthoods – through her marriage and motherhood and his time in the Navy – as they try to work out what they’re actually supposed to be to each other.

Georgie McCool knows her marriage is in trouble - that it's been in trouble for a long time. She still loves her husband, Neal, and he still loves her - but that almost seems besides the point now. Two days before they're supposed to visit Neal's family in Omaha for Christmas, Georgie tells him that she can't go. She's a TV writer, and something's come up on her show; she has to stay in Los Angeles. She knows that Neal will be upset with her - he is always a little upset with her - but she doesn't expect to him to pack up the kids and go home without her.

Cuando crecía en el lado equivocado de Omaha, Shiloh sólo pensaba en escapar, en dejar todo atrás e iniciar una etapa más interesante en su vida. En aquel entonces al menos tenía a Cary: Cary la soportaba, Cary la hacía reír, aunque a los dieciséis, conduciendo la vieja camioneta de su mamá, Cary tenía las cosas peor que ella. Sólo su amistad logró que sobreviviera a la preparatoria… pero cuando ella se fue a la universidad, él se incorporó a la Marina.
