Marigold Evans is a dreamer, always has been, ever since she was a little tike. She always held high expectations for herself, wanting nothing more than to live a life of spontaneity and adventure, wanted a life worth writing about. Because that was her dream, Mari wanted to write, wanted to rouse people with her words. She wanted to leave a mark on the world. And if you asked her what she would have wanted to accomplish by twenty-three, her answer would've been travelling the world, living in hotel rooms, writing about the different people, cultures, styles, foods even. Or maybe even working in New York for a fashion magazine- she didn't care, as long as she was writing. So you can imagine her disappointment when her twenty third birthday comes and- SURPRISE!!- she's still working at her father's flower shop. Then, as if things couldn't get any worse, Marigold's life comes to a shrieking halt, as her family leaves New York for a two-week vacation. Finding her only comfort in the confines of the shop, and the mildly irritating presence of an A-list actor, trying to win back his girlfriend. But that interaction ignites something else, something that keeps leading them back to each other.
