Newly divorced on the eve of her thirtieth birthday, Brynn is sick of heartbreak. She thought she had found her happy ending, but now she´s living with a roommate, Josh, to afford her mortgage, and she´s trying to adjust to her new single life. At least she´s got Carson´s Cove to binge, her beloved 2000s teenage soap. The show ended unexpectantly on a cliffhanger after five seasons, and the two main characters, Sloan and Spencer, never got to declare their love for each other. The show is still perfect in Brynn´s eyes; despite all the drama that goes down, things always have a way of working out in Carson´s Cove . . . unlike her own life.
So when a birthday cake surprisingly shows up on her and Josh´s doorstep, Brynn makes a wish for the one thing she´s always wanted (but has failed to achieve herself): a happily-ever-after.
The next morning, she doesn´t wake up in her apartment. She´s in Carson´s Cove . . . and Josh is there too. Everyone seems to know them, except they´re not Brynn and Josh; they´re Sloan, the sweetheart of Carson´s Cove, and Fletch, the town´s bad boy. And to get home, they have to make Brynn´s wish come true by ensuring Sloan and Spencer, the hometown heartthrob, end up together at last. But as they spend more time together, Brynn and Josh realize that Carson´s Cove might not be as perfect as seen on television . . . especially when they start developing feelings for each other in a plot twist no one has expected. Will they stick to the script, or will real love change the story forever?
