In a charming small-town setting, a local flower shop owner, Annie Walker, seeks her perfect match to complement her quiet life in Rome, Kentucky. However, after overhearing her date label her as "unbelievably boring," she questions her chances of finding love. Inspired by her favorite romance movies, she decides she needs practice in being flirtatious and fun, and enlists the help of Will Griffin, a tattooed and flirtatious bodyguard temporarily back in town. Will has his own reasons for wanting to avoid Annie, but he can't resist her request to teach her how to be the leading lady in her own love story. As they navigate practice dates and fake relationships to throw off the town's gossip, Will finds himself drawn to Annie's sweet nature, despite his disbelief in love. Their lessons lead Annie to realize that passion is essential in a partner, and as they spend more time together, the boundaries of their friendship begin to blur. The journey of self-discovery and unexpected romance unfolds, challenging both characters to confront their feelings and the possibility of love.

Amelia Rose, known as Rae Rose to her adoring fans, is burned-out from years of maintaining her "princess of pop" image. Inspired by her favorite Audrey Hepburn film, Roman Holiday, she drives off in the middle of the night for a break in Rome . . . Rome, Kentucky, that is. When Noah Walker finds Amelia on hisfront lawn in her broken-down car, he makes it clear he doesn't have the time or patience for celebrity problems. He's too busy running the pie shop his grandmother left him and reminding his nosy but lovable neighbors to mind their own damn business. Despite his better judgment, he lets her stay in his guest room—but only until her car is fixed—then she's on her own. Then Noah starts to see a different side of Rae Rose—she's Amelia: kindhearted and goofy, yet lonely from years in the public eye. He can't help but get close to her. Soon she'll have to return to her glamorous life on tour, but until then, Noah will show Amelia all the charming small-town experiences she's been missing, and she'll help him open his heart to more. Amelia can't resist falling for the cozy town and her grumpy tour guide, but even Audrey had to leave Rome eventually.
