We all want to find 'the one', but what happens when you find 'the two'? Alexana (Lexa) Wright, a writer and procrastinator, is single. She's 30 years old and lives in her deceased grandmother's bungalow with her 3 year old shih-tzu, Beryl. Ideally, Lexa would like to meet a man by chance, like people do in films, but, unable to find love in real life, she takes the advice of her best friend, Louise, and signs up to an internet dating site. Gregory, a handsome gym manager, enters her life via her e-mail inbox, and the morning after their first date Lexa meets William, an unemployed artist who, out of the blue, falls head over heels for her. Dating them both simultaneously, she's faced with a tough decision. Who does she choose: The man that she met on the internet, or the man she met by chance, like people do in films? She distracts herself by cleaning out her bathroom cupboard and mowing her jungle-like lawn. While doing these things she comes across photos, letters, newspaper cuttings, and her grandmother's diary. Upon reading these items, Lexa discovers information about her grandmother's youth that no-one in the family knew about. She uses this as inspiration to write her first novel.
