A favor for her aunt.
A favor for his uncle.
One date and it’s over . . . or is it?
Violet Monroe, a softhearted but anxious journalism major, has spent the last two years providing inspiration for her Aunt Pearl’s successful advice column by going on endless blind dates with local Colorado gentlemen. After the excitement wears away, Violet happily retreats from life as a serial blind dater, only to be roped back in as her aunt’s retirement approaches. Wanting to go out with a bang, Aunt Pearl pulls out all the stops and sends Violet off on her most outrageous blind date yet – a weekend in New York City with a mystery beau.
Wealthy and wildly handsome, Sawyer Quinn is heir to the Royce media empire. Growing disenchanted with the constant social pressures that come with his family name—and his overly controlling mother—Sawyer jumps at the opportunity when his uncle suddenly approaches him with a proposal for a blind date.
After a haphazard first meeting, the couple hit it off with an electrifying jolt as Sawyer gives Violet a personal tour of the sights and sounds of New York City. But as the hours tick on and their feelings for each other intensify, both begin to dread the inevitable goodbye that Sunday will bring.
Will their love affair last beyond the weekend, or will interference by outside forces break up this once-in-a-lifetime chance at true love?
