Plot Synopsis

A mother and widow of five years, Rene Anderson has thrown herself into running her cozy bistro with friend, cook and co-owner Lou, and she's wrapped her entire social life around being her 15-year-old daughter Headly's BFF. While Headly still grieves the loss of her dad, she's also discovering boys, specifically classmate Bodie Miller, the handsome aspiring songwriter who recently returned to town. Determined to get out of fancy dinners and zumba lessons with mom, she sets some secret romantic goals for them both, help her mom find love and get her own first meaningful kiss before summer arrives. With her astronomy-obsessed best friend Willis, she concocts a variety of schemes to find her mother's "future husband," from interviews in the park to creating an online profile. After successfully maneuvering several nice guys into the bistro, sparks seem to fly with windowed dad Andrew, but a misunderstanding threatens to derail Headly's plans. Meanwhile, Headly discovers dating is more challenging than expected. With summer looming, Rene and Headly ultimately find that they must first deal with the past in order to open their hearts to the romantic possibilities in front of them.
