Jillian's co-worker, Ben, has his own ideas on that score. He hates seeing Jill depressed over a guy as unworthy as her ex. While he's providing a friendly ear, he's also realizing how much more he'd like to offer. And if Jill could just get over the man who broke her heart, she might find the one who's perfectly equipped to heal it...
