Clumsy, quirky, and utterly charming, Beth Spinner is a human whirlwind of catastrophes. While she is no stranger to embarrassing situations, getting publicly dumped at her grandmother's funeral is a whole new kind of embarrassment. Deciding she's had enough, Beth takes a page from her favorite Irish romance novel and sets off to find her real-life dashing hero.
With her well-worn book in hand and infectiously positive attitude, Beth boards a flight heading to the wild shores of Ireland. But her adventure is already off to a rocky start when she is seated next to Aidan, a grumpy curmudgeon who is none other than the author of her favorite Irish romance. And he is the most seemingly unromantic man she has ever met.
Aidan Turner is in a slump. How can a romance author write when he doesn't believe in love anymore? It's no wonder his publisher rejected his recent book. And the last thing he needs is the wide-eyed, idealistic woman chatting beside him as a reminder. No matter how adorable she is.
After landing in Ireland and a series of mishaps (who knew you had to drive on the wrong side of the road?), it seems Beth's luck may finally be turning around. Especially when she sees Aidan again at a wedding and he offers to be her tour guide. She may be a walking disaster, but no one deserves a poor experience when visiting such a beautiful country.
As Beth sees the man beneath the gruff exterior, and Aidan experiences his world through her eyes, fiction and reality blur. Life may not play out like a romance novel, but sometimes, you're given the opportunity to re-write your own love story.
