Lucy Bowen has had enough of romance. After multiple failed relationships and an extreme lack of Prince Charmings, she's given up on the idea altogether... except she can't really do that because she works for NYC's biggest romance publisher, Heartwarming, and she's desperate for a promotion.

When Heartwarming's bestselling author Ruby Jones threatens to leave due to dwindling sales, and a lack of inspiration, Lucy's boss, Anne, must act fast. To show Heartwarming's commitment (and maybe interfere with her romance-burnt-out assistant's life just a little bit), she sends Lucy on a research trip to a tiny lakeside town.

Lucy's task: come up with a new romance novel for Ruby to write.

It's not long before Lucy realises that her secret mission to get close to the locals might not be as easy as she thought - especially when she meets her neighbour and local restaurant owner, Liam who, amongst other vaguely annoying traits, is extremely sceptical of city people.

But before she can say cliche, Lucy finds herself living an actual small-town romance, complete with a quirky cast of characters and some undeniable chemistry between her and the town hunk.
