Hearts
With a call to a radio station and a bunch of 80s musical trivia in her back pocket, young widow Julia Delmonico wins a spot on a “Second Chance at Romance” cruise to Hawaii. On her way towards paradise, she bumps into Martin Estrada—single, handsome, and funny.

But is Martin’s past more important than a possible future with Julia? With a little advice from the octogenarian in the cabin next door, and a strong nudge from the flamboyant and insistent “cupid” who’s been assigned to Julia on the cruise, she might just take a chance and choose love…

Love, Loss, and Pasta
What's a girl to do when her husband leaves her for a recent college grad? She buys a falling-down villa in a rustic Italian village for a dollar and rolls up her sleeves to renovate it--that's what.

Sunday Richmond is thirty-two, newly divorced, and newly settled in a charming Tuscan village. In no time, her expat neighbors become her new family, and a sexy, floppy-haired Australian pediatrician becomes her closest friend.

Max Gallo has come to Italy to take a break. His plans include forgetting his last breakup, and learning how to make olive oil. The last thing on his mind is a new relationship.

As the holidays approach, Sunday and Max have a misunderstanding that leaves them both wondering if the new lives they've chosen are any better than the ones they left behind.

High-powered New York City real estate agent Estelle has realized that it's lonely at the top. So when she meets adorable Tyler in Central Park one day, she has a vision of what it might be like to have someone. The only problem? She met Tyler when a soccer ball he was kicking nailed her in the noggin. Sure, it's a meet-cute of sorts, but there are other things about Tyler that make her wonder whether he's even dating potential.

In order to find out whether Tyler really has any raw material to work with, Estelle makes a she'll renovate him just like a home. She'll work with the bones and add the decor. She's done it countless times to walk-ups and pre-war apartments alike, so what's so different about doing it to a man?

Television producer Carrie Devereaux works on the hugely successful dating show, Trial By Fire, and considers herself a fast-paced, gritty New Yorker at heart. But when the female half of her most recent episode backs out, she's unwittingly forced to fill the spot herself. At her boss's insistence, she becomes mild-mannered Carrie from Idaho, a nanny who likes to volunteer and spend quiet nights working on knitting projects. She flies to California to meet her television suitor and suddenly finds herself caring for two young, motherless children despite the fact that the real Carrie has zero experience with kids.

Jack Brewster has agreed to participate in Trial By Fire and to let Carrie come stay at his house in Santa Barbara and care for his two children because his board of directors feels that Brewster Inc.'s hotel chain is in desperate need of an image overhaul. But starring on a reality show about finding love and exposing his kids to a total stranger goes against Jack's nature--not to mention the way it goes against his heart, which still belongs to his late wife, Andrea.

Neither Jack nor Carrie knows the real reasons for the other's participation in the show, but as they get to know one another, there is clear chemistry between them.
