Description
Gretchen Andrews is a homegrown Cape Cod lifer. She's just a regular girl studying to be a teacher, making ends meet by waitressing at the Diamond Excelsior Resort.
At least, that was the case before Memorial Day weekend.
Brady Hawthorne is the Assistant Manager at the Diamond Excelsior's main restaurant. That is, until Gretchen comes along and takes down his summer plans in one fell swoop. Lesson learned: Never ask a girl who can't walk in heels to be your lead server in private dining...unless you want to lose your job when she inevitably dumps a tray of hot seafood in a celebrity's lap.
Now in the height of tourist season, Gretchen and Brady find themselves wageless with mounting bills and few options for traditional employment. As the job search becomes dire, Gretchen seizes an opportunity working at the Cape's premier, underground bachelorette-party destination, a place where she never expects to find the boss who fired her wearing next to nothing while dollars rain down around him Niagara-style.
When the owner skips town and leaves Gretchen to manage the (probably illegal) operation for the unforeseeable future, she enlists help from the only person she knows who understands that desperate times call for desperate measures. Gretchen and Brady begrudgingly bump and grind their way from enemies to partners-in-crime in a matter of weeks. Gretchen puts it all on the line - her family, her new love-interest, and her professional future - by two-stepping into a spotlight that was never meant for her.
