In Magnolia Springs, love goes to the highest - and truest - bidder.
When shy and vintage-obsessed Ellie Zada wanders into an antique auction during her summer getaway to Magnolia Springs, she never expects to fall head over heels... for a dusty old music box.
Cocky and clearly allergic to humility, Nico Devereux has retreated to the coastal town to dodge his big-city responsibilities. When Ellie dares to bid against him for the same music box, he ups the price just for the fun of it - and wins.
Ellie's crushed. Desperate. So she panics and blurts out a lie: that the piece of antique is a gift for her dying grandmother.
Momentarily horrified, Nico gives in and lets her take it at his winning price. But weeks later, in the quiet of an early morning, he spots Ellie with her grandmother - who, inconveniently, looks very much alive.
Busted.
One little lie. One contested antique. A thousand irresistible sparks.
Who will win?
