Eva lives her life by the numbers. Adrienne lives his by the moment. And their new apartment only has one bed.
As a hyper-organized senior financial analyst, Eva thrives on structure, color-coded spreadsheets, and predictable daily protocols. When her firm relocates her to a gorgeous, historic canal house in Amsterdam, she expects a flawless, quiet new chapter to conquer her career goals.
Enter Adrienne.
Adrienne is a wildly successful French travel photographer who treats life like a fluid sketch and rules like a joke. He is chaotic, effortlessly charming, stubbornly half-naked at all times, and happens to be the childhood best friend of Eva's brother. After a plumbing disaster ruins his Paris flat, he manages to hustle his way into Eva's corporate rental.
The catch? The "luxury two-bedroom" apartment is actually a tiny, open-concept loft with a vertical ladder staircase, a completely broken sofa, and exactly one king-sized mattress.
Forced to share a bed and navigate a single, highly competitive bathroom, Eva draws a strict, invisible centerline down the mattress. But as the Amsterdam rain pours down and the roommate friction turns into undeniable, slow-burn sexual chemistry, Eva's pristine spreadsheets begin to completely unravel.
Can a girl who maps out her entire life on a Google Calendar handle a chaotic Frenchman who proves that the best moments in life are the ones you can never plan for?
