Birdie Maxwell's Hollywood career crashes after a public feud goes viral. She flees to her small hometown, hoping to escape the spotlight. There she discovers an unsigned love letter from a former boyfriend who wants another chance. The problem is she can't identify which ex wrote it. Birdie sees an opportunity to rehabilitate her image through a public reunion with this mystery man. Meanwhile, Elliot O'Brien has harbored feelings for his twin sister's best friend Birdie for twenty years. His journalism career is failing, but when Birdie returns home at the same time he does, he convinces her to let him document her search for the letter writer. They set off in an old RV to track down her romantic past. As they visit former boyfriends across the country, both Birdie and Elliot confront their previous relationship mistakes. Their road trip forces them to question whether real love exists only in movies or if their own happy ending might be right in front of them.
