BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS
Max is in the apple cider business and business is booming. He's considering expanding even though his dad says it's a bad idea. The big news in town though is that the book store is up for sale.
We meet Elise. She kills plants. Her temp contract is expiring but her boss wants to bring her on permanently. But that's not her passion. She's an aspiring author. But she accepts the position anyway. She just needs a few weeks to finalize the sale of her grandma's book store.
When she gets to the shore, she's shocked to find that the only worker is a teen named Molly and a neighborhood cat.
She goes around town, drinking some cider, and ends up spilling all of it on Max. They clearly know each other. But she can't stick around long. She has to get ready for the Blooms and Books event her grandma threw every year. Except, she knows nothing about blooms. Max offers to help. But he wants her to help him write his story. She's reluctant to say yes because she's never written anything successful. But she ends up saying yes which leads to them hanging out, sparks begin to fly, they play on a tire swing. All normal adult stuff.
As they get closer, he tells her that he wants to read her manuscript she had been working on.
Bad news tho - the folks that want to buy the book store want to gut it and build condos. Elise is not thrilled and asks the real estate agent to ask them to reconsider.
Elise is making cider with Max and he pitches her staying in town to run the store and write and be with him. He doesn't understand why she'd wanna leave. It's a whole thing.
Bad news - a storm is coming. This could mess up everything. It wipes out all of Max's apple blossoms. This could mean no festival. No cider. No nothing. She encourages him to use his emergency apples that his dad set aside and he finally agrees to let him do what he wants with the business.
She ends up deciding to stay and live her dream and they kiss.
One year later, her book is published and they're a happy couple.
