Description
An accidental phone swap finds a celebrity heartthrob falling in love with an ordinary girl. But falling in love in private is not as simple as falling in love in reality. Especially if the world is somehow still watching...
When never-been-in-love, ambitious scientist Allie, and romantic, golden retriever movie star Milo switch seats on a plane, they find themselves unintentionally stuck with the other’s phone. Although now an ocean apart, they agree to help each other—just until they can meet to swap them back. As they trade back and forth on each other’s phones, Allie and Milo can’t help but notice there’s more to their connection than just messages and digital practicalities. Something real.
But as the clock ticks down to them finally meeting, Allie and Milo discover that their meet-cute may not be as simple as their intimate messages and private video calls.
As two very different worlds collide, is the chance for true love even possible? After all, you can’t escape reality forever. Right?
