With an impending book deadline, and a deal with a handsome stranger, recently widowed romance author Olivia ventures on a journey that heals her belief in love again.

After writing three successful novels, Olivia thought she had the whole 'author' thing down. But with an approaching deadline for her fourth novel, she finds herself with one dilemma: following the death of her fiance, her leading male character is nowhere to be found. With the worst writer's block in her career, Olivia embarks on a journey of the ultimate leading man search: speed dating.

Theo is a man on a mission: find a date for his sister's wedding before his mother does. With the wedding in two months, Theo sets out to find his leading lady. After watching a woman speed date numerous men, ending each date by taking notes in a green notebook, his curiosity leads him to make a deal with Olivia. Theo will help her find her leading man, if Olivia acts as his fake date to his sister's wedding.

Will they manage to keep their relationship truly professional? Or will the lines between real love and fiction become all too blurred?
