Our Perfect Storm
Synopsis
Francesca "Frankie" Gardiner and George Saint James have been best friends since childhood, through awkward teenage years, through living together as young adults, through everything except romance. Two days before her wedding, Frankie's fiance calls it off. With the ceremony cancelled and a non-refundable honeymoon to Tofino, British Columbia, still booked, George makes a proposition: the two of them should go together, and he will help her recover with a meticulously planned itinerary. One week on the wild Pacific coast forces the lifelong friends to face the history, the feelings, and the one kiss they have never talked about. Moving between the present trip and flashbacks to their childhood, Our Perfect Storm is a friends-to-lovers romance about the line between the person who knows you best and the person you are meant to be with.
