Emma spots Finn across the wedding party and her stomach drops. These former debate champions have a history of almosts: the date that never happened, the party that went wrong, the kiss that led nowhere, that rooftop night in New York that ended in heartbreak. Now they're both part of the wedding party, trying to avoid each other. Then the bride disappears. Emma and Finn get stuck with the same mission: find her and bring her back before the ceremony. Their search becomes a coastal road trip that forces them to revisit old memories and unfinished business. As they drive together, the tension between what they almost had and what they might still want grows stronger. The miles and memories pile up, and Emma has to decide whether to risk her heart again with the one person who already broke it.
