January Adams is a plucky chick lit writer who moves into a lake house to try work on a novel she owes to her publisher. But with her happily-ever-after worldview in question -- she recently found out her parent's happy marriage was a lie and was dumped by a boyfriend who didn't want to deal with the resulting emotional turmoil -- she's having a hard time writing about romance.
At the lake house, she finds out her neighbor is the handsome but grumpy Augustus "Gus" Everett, a novelist and former college acquaintance slash rival slash crush, who is working on his next book as well.
