Alice: Always on the path to find the right woman, Alice is a magazine writer who is never afraid to speak her mind -- even if it gets her into trouble.
Bette: Bette and Tina are the focused couple on the show. Tina recently gave birth to a baby girl named Anjelica and Bette is doing her best to officially adopt her.
Shane: Constantly looking for a woman who will make her happy, Shane is the resident hairstylist who constantly catches the attention of everyone she meets. Shane now spends her time with the beautiful Carmen.
The Planet: The local coffeehouse owned by Marina where the women meet everday to discuss their lives, hopes, loves and losses.
