Alex Gaskarth is a big rockstar now, lead singer of the band All Time Low. The Dirty Work tour has just ended and now he's back in Baltimore for a while, settling down and working on some new music. After a rough breakup with his long-time girlfriend, Lisa, shortly before going on tour, Alex has been having the worst flares of anxiety he has seen in years. He's not looking for anything special this summer, just some time off to focus on himself. But he soon finds himself drawn to a plain-Jane, coffee-shop girl: Wendy.
Wendy Colton is twenty years old and just finishing up her sophomore year at John Hopkins University. She's down to earth, not much of a music buff, but instead deeply invested in her British Literature. She's a good-girl type who always plays by the rules and tries to live up to others' expectations of her. That is, until Alex walks into the coffee-shop she works at. Now, Wendy will face choices she has never had to face before and she may not live up to all those expectations of her. But in the end, does she even want to?
