After years of self-destructive behavior, Harvey Moon makes up his mind to deal with the deaths of his parents with a self-imposed isolation, deciding no friends and all work is the best way to cope.
Enter Lisa Anderson.
She’s brand-new to New York, running from a minor (alleged) crime committed against her cheating ex-boyfriend and escaping to her sister’s apartment in the city for the summer.
But when she arrives, her sister is nowhere to be found, having set off herself for a Euro summer adventure. Lisa is alone and desperately in need of at least one friend to help show her around and keep her company before the Big Apple swallows her whole.
A chance run-in (literally) begins the unfolding of a summer love story with laughs, love, and tears.
A love letter to New York, this grumpy/sunshine friends to lovers stars a diverse cast of characters as it dives into what it means to be a friend, how feeling loved can inspire someone to love themselves, and how deep romance can develop from the strangest of encounters.
