A pair of frenemies navigates the shallow depths of a small-town
dating scene only to find the romance they need is right in front of
them.
Former ballerina Marlo Jonas has all the right moves--except when it
comes to men. Her latest boyfriend? A cheater. In the wake of her
breakup, her father has a novel idea for her: try dating men for who
they are and not how they look. This makes it easy to ignore her hot
nemesis, Seattle Times reporter Ben Wexler-Lowrey.
Ben's take on romance means spending time with interesting women whose
personalities might sparkle more than their looks dazzle. But Ben's
mother thinks he can fare better. He's never tried online dating before,
but what could be the harm in putting himself out there?
As Marlo and Ben both suffer through a series of hilariously awkward
dates, they're left feeling empty. Marlo needs someone empathetic enough
to soothe her past hurt. Ben needs someone who truly sees him for the
man he is.
These enemies love to loathe one another; could that mean Marlo and Ben
are foes in love?
