Abby's big break-up just went viral.


When Abby Boyko agrees to go on a morning TV show as part of a Valentine's Day special, she's in for a big surprise. Instead of promoting their new phone app, her business partner -- and boyfriend -- breaks up with her on live TV. Then the video goes viral. Now Abby's lost her relationship, her fledgling business, and her self-esteem.

Still reeling from the humiliation, Abby would prefer to stay swaddled in her cozy colourful apartment with her rescue cat, Oscar -- but determined to develop a competing app, she arranges a meeting with tech genius, Mason Harrington.

From the moment he saw Abby's video, Mason's gentle heart was filled with sympathy for her. He can't believe he's getting a chance to actually help her. Unfortunately, his nervous awkwardness makes their first encounter a complete disaster when he accidentally makes her cry, insults her business idea, and harasses her.

But what Mason lacks in suaveness, he makes up for in determination. He's going to apologize and make things right. Can he be the knight in wrinkled Dockers who helps Abby heal her broken heart?
