They have to stop meeting like this.
After a disastrous meet-cute turns into repeated meetings, a flighty free-spirit and a stodgy rule-follower come to realize that one they canโt get away from ... is the one they canโt live without.
Mackenzie โMacโ Austin just wants what any modern, commitment-phobic woman in New York wants: a no-strings-attached hook-up, steamy enough to brag about over mimosas the next morning. What she doesnโt want is her dating appโs latest suggestion: preppy, corporate Thomas Decker. So, obviously, she rejects the guy without a second thought. Thereโs just one snag: heโs sitting next to her, so he witnessed her do it. And now heโs calling her out.
