Plot

Zoe Reynard has the perfect life with her husband Jason and two children, and is the CEO of her own company, which signs and develops aspiring artists. One evening, she attends an art show of Quinton Canosa; the two meet and share some flirtation. Zoe later visits his apartment to discuss a contract, and the two end up having sex. Zoe feels guilty and tries to end it with Quinton; they break up regularly, but always inevitably end up getting back together. On one particular occasion, when Zoe goes to get back with Quinton, she finds him having sex with his neighbor. Throughout the film, Zoe is telling this story as a flashback to her psychotherapist, Dr. Marcella Spencer, who after diagnosing her with sex addiction, assumes it might have been something from Zoe's past that keeps coming back to haunt her and pressures her to confess. However, each time brought up, Zoe avoids the question and walks out. Zoe's addiction begins to take over her life; she soon begins sleeping with a second man, Corey, whom she met at a club. One day, when she comes home from work, she finds Corey at her home talking to her mother. Seeing the danger she had put her family in, Zoe decides that she wants to try to fix her marriage with Jason. She invites both Corey and Quinton to meet her at Quinton's apartment and breaks up with both of them. Corey becomes angry and lunges at her, but Quinton blocks him. As Corey leaves, Quinton knocks him out with a vase. Zoe becomes afraid of Quinton and tries to calm him down; Quinton tells her that she is not going to leave him. Frightened, Zoe shoves glass artwork between them, smashing it to pieces. She then hides from Quinton, who is chasing her with a knife. Suddenly, Jason appears and smashes a sculpture over Quinton's head. Jason reveals he found out about Zoe cheating by her cellphone. Zoe runs after Jason, apologizing profusely, but he rejects her. Out of desperation, Zoe walks in front of a car, injuring herself. The two split up and Jason stays in a hotel. Zoe becomes a recluse but soon goes to a sex-addiction group therapy session. The root of Zoe's addiction was found to be because of a rape committed by three boys when she was 10 years old. At the session, she speaks of her deep love for her husband, and Jason walks in, kisses her, and accepts her back.
