Synopsis:
22-year-old Heidi Haynes is almost one year into her “real
life”. She has her first reporting job and her first apartment, but she’s yet
to experience first love. Yes, she’s in a comfortable relationship with her
college sweetheart, and according to her friends and family, he’s perfect for
her. But for some reason she’s not as eager to talk about walking down the
aisle as he is.
And while Heidi’s doing what she wants to do, she’s not
where she wants to be. She longs for big cities, big-market breaking news, and
real independence from her way-too-close-by helicopter parents. Problem is, the
last time she left the security of home for new places and new people, things
didn’t go so well. Disastrously, in fact, and she came running back to a local
college and a “safe” boyfriend.
Well-traveled Californian Aric Serrano plans to stay in
small-market-Southern-Hell just long enough to grab a cup of coffee and put
together a kick-ass “escape tape”. He’ll serve his one-year contract, then he’s
taking off for a higher rung on the TV sports ladder—alone—the way he likes it.
But when he walks into the newsroom and meets Heidi, he may have finally found
something and someone worth committing to.
Heidi would be so much more comfortable if she could avoid
her new co-worker—he’s just her type—the type she’s so careful to avoid. But
that becomes impossible when she and Aric are forced to work together on the
weekend news. Now there’s no denying the attraction between them, and she’ll
have to decide between settling for the “good enough” life she already has or
taking the risk of going for what she dreams of, an exciting career and a real
love.
