Lauren Monroe has always believed that if you work hard enough, life falls into place.
Sloane Barrett has spent years proving that plans are overrated.
When they're unexpectedly forced to co-lead their university's annual festival, they clash over every decision, and every impossible obstacle the festival throws their way. But somewhere between their constant arguments, late nights, and impossible deadlines, they discover that the person they're trying hardest to avoid might be the only one who truly sees them.
With graduation approaching and the future pulling them in opposite directions, Lauren and Sloane must decide whether what they've found is worth fighting for, or if sometimes the right person simply comes along at the wrong time.
