Because of You (2010)
“It was New Year’s Eve and she was on her way to a party when she wanted nothing more than to be at home, in front of the television watching the ball drop, while toasting the new year with a glass of champagne.

However, she’d caved when her brother threatened to come to Westchester and forcibly drag her out of the house to at...tend a party hosted by his pro ball teammate on New Year’s Eve at an Upper East Side penthouse.
Her brother Alexander Fleming claimed she worked too hard and was alone much too much. But what her football player brother failed to realize or understand was that she was content being alone.
