Jodie Maine is just an ordinary girl trying to make it as an author when she unexpectedly finds herself on a date with her high school history teacher. No longer teaching, he is now in a band and wastes no time in introducing Jodie to his bandmates. In almost no time, her humdrum life becomes a tangle of love and loss, friends, family and a roller-coaster of emotion. Join Jodie in a tale of old friends, new friends, relationships, music, literature and an awful lot of coffee.
