Mallory Johansen has nearly given up on thinking she'll get her act together - the one where she plays the part of an adult - by the time she hits thirty. As it is she's desperate and depressed. Her only friend is leaving town, she's paired to work with a man who can't stand her, and she finds herself homeless. Definitely hasn't mastered being a grown-up yet.

Otis Bell wants nothing more than to play his guitar, book acoustic bands to perform at his upcoming music venue, and be in charge of his own life. Instead, he's working full time in his family's auto shop. He only owns half the supposed music venue, which stands as an abandoned church and needs more than a little work. When his best friend moves away, he's paired with an aloof girl he's never liked as partner, and stretches himself thin working too many hours.
