The loser has to help promote the other's book. Gus will write a happily-ever-after, and January will try her hand at literary fiction. When January confides in him about her writer's block, they come up with a challenge. He was also a womanizer and commitment-phobe. In college, they both competed for the same writing prizes, and he made fun of her upbeat writing. January moves there to write, and her neighbor turn out to be the handsome but grumpy Augustus Everett ("Gus" or "SEG"), a former college rival. Sonya also gives January a letter from her father and the key to his secret love nest, a lake house in North Bear Shores, Michigan.
As a result of it all, January is disillusioned about love, which has made it hard for her to write about romance. January is also now semi-homeless and single, because her (now ex) boyfriend Jacques couldn't deal with her emotional fallout.
At the funeral, she meets Sonya, his mistress, revealing that he had been cheating on his mother the whole time and shattering her idea of their happy marriage. January Andrews is a chick lit novelist whose life is a bit of a wreck following the death of her father, Walt.
