Jake is a spoiled New York City businessman who brings his pal Freddy to the French Riviera in 1938 for some business ventures, but mostly a lot of fun. When he meets the artistic and smart Michelle at a party he is immediately smitten with her sharp tongue and her fast comebacks, and a holiday fling seems inevitable. Little does he know that she will come to call him out on his bad boy behavior and force him to take a closer look at himself.
Michelle is a young woman from an artistic family who is used to the flood of tourists and their boring attempts to win her love. She finds Jake an exceptionally irritating example of this and shows him no mercy when he uses his quick witted charms on her. But Jake will not stand to be scrutinized alone and their tongue twisting battles starts a war of wits between the two.
When a sudden tragedy strikes the two lovebirds lay down their arms, and their relationship grows deeper and more serious. Could this be something more than just a summer crush? Could Michelle be happy with Jake in NYC with his old flames and new frenemies?
An epic love story that starts on the glamorous French Riviera and ends (?) in the big city drama of NYC.
