Amy Gallagher is an aspiring writer working as an English teacher in small-town Ohio just to pay the bills. All her dreams start to unravel as rejections pile up - both from publishers and from men. But just as Amy fears her life is stuck in a holding pattern, she meets a mysterious and unavailable artist named Eli.
Amy struggles to walk the fine line between friendship and something more with Eli, even as navigating her spirituality becomes increasingly complicated.
