Nick and Wren have never met. But fate is about to change everything. Could true love be just a catastrophe away?

Local reporter Wren just wants a quiet life with no surprises. Sure, her boyfriend Alex is a bit vain and controlling, and maybe their relationship isn't as exciting as it used to be. But excitement is overrated, right?

Handyman Nick is keen to keep his head down too, while adapting to the breakdown of his relationship and learning how to be a single father. All he wants is for his business to take off, to see his daughter, and crack on with things.

But then, Nick accidentally drops a glass window, which lands mere inches from Wren's head. From there, from electrocutions to car malfunctions, slippages, bookcases and muggings, fate isn't going to leave these two alone. Not until they meet.

When Wren heads to Italy on what should have been a trip for two, she has no idea that Nick is there too, looking for his estranged father. And when yet another near-death experience finally throws them together, sparks fly.

But Nick and Wren soon find out their lives are even more entwined that they thought. Will their love survive, or will it be another near miss?
