**January** is a hopeless romantic who narrates her life like she's the lead in a blockbuster movie.  
  
**Gus** is a serious literary type who thinks true love is a fairy-tale.  
  
But January and Gus have more in common than you'd think:  
  
They're both broke.  
They've got crippling writer's block.  
And they need to write bestsellers before summer ends.  
  
The result? A bet to swap genres and see who gets published first.  
The risk? In telling each other's stories, their worlds might be changed entirely...
