Sparks fly when a self-sufficient single mom meets a magnetic perennial bachelor. On their first date, they collaborate--in jest--on the ultimate un-bucket list: ten things to do together before they break up. But when fate intervenes, this pair of cynics must embark on the most challenging journey of all, building a family together, and the chance to trade their cynicism for hope.

A.J. Fikry's life is not turning out as he expected and hits emotional and financial rock bottom. He lives alone, his bookstore is in a sales slump, and his most valuable possession, a book of poems, has been stolen. But when a mysterious package appears, he soon discovers he has a second chance at life, and love.
