What's a penny worth? Do you ignore the ones lying on the sidewalk because they're not worth picking up? For the shy and clumsy Norah, a penny will become so much more than a simple cent.
Every morning she enters the elevator of her office building and hides among the throng of professionals sandwiching inside. From behind their shoulders, she's safe to hopelessly stare at Cole Collins... or at least get a glimpse of the back of his well-trimmed hair---the hair she dreams of running her fingers through.
When a loud and obnoxious office Temp decides to barge her way into Norah's life, they develop a friendship that might be exactly what she needs to change up her luck with love.
And it all starts with picking up a penny.
