Maggie West is perfectly content with her life as a single, twenty-five-year-old homebody extraordinaire. But when her best friend asks her to bring a plus-one to her wedding, Maggie reluctantly agrees to go on a series of (increasingly disastrous) blind dates. Even worse, the weeks before the wedding bring her in constant company with Jack, the wedding's dour, disapproving best man.

As exhausted and threadbare as he feels, though, the prospect of a month off is as daunting as it is unwelcome - he has no interest in rehashing all the things that led to his breakdown. The presence of quirky, accident-prone Maggie - and her uncanny ability to shatter through his tight reserve - only further unsettles him.But when a rogue protective instinct has Jack offering to help her, the tension between them shifts in the wake of an unsettling maybe all of their broken, hidden places are the very ones where they need each other the most.
