Avery Bennett, a renowned romance novelist, is struggling with a severe case of writer's block, unable to find her muse. That is, until she crosses paths with the enigmatic and brooding surgeon, Miles. With his demanding career, Miles has no interest in relationships. Together, they devise a no-strings-attached arrangement that caters to both their needs, with one strict rule: no falling in love. But as their connection deepens, will they be able to adhere to their pact, or will Avery's writing start to reflect a reality that is far more compelling than fiction?
