But one day, on a hiking trip with your best friends on Mt. Ebott, you trip on a root and fall. That's when things get noticeably weird. And they keep getting weirder.
When Chef Margot loses her beloved restaurant to her cheating ex-fiance, her best friend, single dad Nathan, steps in with an unexpected offer to help her start over. As they collaborate, sparks fly-but can they overcome their complicated pasts for a chance at real love?
