Doctor Kal Anderson assumes his heart worked at some point. But now his cold, emotionless existence gives him an edge as a fixer and in-house physician for the Mafia. After admiring the heartless doctor from afar most of her life, Elena catches him in a moment of weakness, and the pair shares a night of passion. Only, the night seems to have the opposite effect. Elena is no longer a simple temptation to Kal, but a necessity. An obsession. One he won’t let anyone stand in his way of—even if that means crashing her wedding to another man, forcing her hand in marriage, and stealing her away to the corrupt island he resides on.

Wren Roland has never been kissed, let alone been in love like all the characters in his favorite movies. On the eve of going home to help run his hometown drive-in, he drunkenly send emails to all the boys he (ahem) loved before he came out. It only makes sense that Derick Haverford, Wren’s #1 pre-coming-out-crush and the drive-in’s new social media marketing intern, is a recipient of one of those emails. And to make matters worse, he doesn’t even remember the infamous high school almost-kiss that Wren’s been pining away over. Now Wren must team up with Derick to make a big promotional push for the drive-in’s annual Dusk-til-Dawn Moviethon. But what started as a professional partnership helps rekindle their old friendship, which might just be Wren’s first step towards finally getting his magical kiss-before-the-credits.
