Hairstylist Jess Greene has spent the last decade raising her younger half-sister, Tegan --- and keeping a shocking secret. Ever since their reckless mother ran off with a boyfriend she’d known only a few months, Jess has been aware that he’s the same accomplished con man who was the subject of a wildly popular podcast, "The Last Con of Lynton Baltimore." Now 31, Jess didn’t bargain on Tegan eventually piecing together the connection for herself. But Tegan plans to do exactly what Jess has always feared --- leave their safe, stable home to search for their mother --- and she’ll be accompanied by the prying podcast host and her watchful, handsome producer, Adam Hawkins. Unwilling to let the sister she’s spent so much of her life protecting go it alone, Jess reluctantly joins them.

When an unexpected upheaval sends longtime personal assistant Georgie Mulcahy away from her hectic job in L.A. and back to her hometown, she must confront an uncomfortable truth: her own wants and needs have always been a disconcertingly blank page. But then she comes across a forgotten artifact --- a “friendfic” diary she wrote as a teenager, filled with possibilities she once imagined. To an overwhelmed Georgie, the diary’s simple, small-scale ideas are a lifeline --- a guidebook for getting started on a new path. Her plans hit a snag, though, when she comes face to face with an unexpected roommate --- Levi Fanning, one-time town troublemaker and current town hermit. But this quiet, grouchy man is more than just his reputation, and he offers to help Georgie with her quest.
