Broken by life. Repaired by music.

    Near-penniless fashion blogger Romy Stone reluctantly goes to a folk concert with her best friend, and she doesn't expect the event to even entertain her.

    Wendell Scott is a brilliant musician--the classical kind. But his teacher thinks it would be good for him to expand his horizons, so he takes her concert tickets with the hope of giving his compositions some life.

    When he and Romy both catch one half of the ceremonially tossed drumsticks, they think they've gotten a quaint souvenir. But this is The Jaded Bottles' last bow, and Romy and Wendell now each possess one half of a fortune that could leave either sitting pretty. In order to get paid, she has to convince him to part with his drumstick.

    Which means Romy had better go find Wendell because she has no idea who he is.
