Some things in life defy the perfect plan.
Cynthia Pritchard-Kennedy strives for perfection, meticulously checking off every step of Momma’s foolproof life plan. But when her best friend Tom asks a simple question about her fiancé, her precisely curated world tilts. Momma’s sudden death tips it further, spurring her to end her engagement.
When Momma’s last letter reveals an article with 16 simple rules for life, a new path appears.
To reclaim control, Cynthia signs up for a half-marathon and enlists Tom—her charming cowboy opposite—to train by her side. In return, he enlists her to pose as his girlfriend at a week-long family reunion to dodge his family’s matchmaking schemes.
But as they play pretend, Cynthia’s orderly heart craves Tom’s unpredictable spark. As the reunion ends, she must choose: cling to Momma’s rigid expectations or embrace a love that breaks every rule.
