Synopsis

It’s a long way down… Socialite and fashion blogger, Josette Singer, has it all—old money, new money, boyfriends who love her money, good friends and legs for days. The best part? Never facing the consequences of her own actions. Until she does. After a court-mandated stay at a mental health retreat forces her to re-evaluate her life’s choices and prove her virtuous side, she’s more determined than ever to regain her reputation (and inheritance). So, when opportunity knocks, she joins the popular reality TV show, HomeTown Heroes. The job offers publicity and good old-fashion morality- two things Jo desperately needs. Tasked with saving a soldier’s small-town farm, Jo packs up her big-city life and heads to Kentucky. One thing not on her agenda? A romantic entanglement with the show’s hunky hero, Jackson Taylor. She has a life to get back to, a board to be reinstated on, and goals to achieve. But, per usual for Jo, nothing goes as planned. With failed ideas, scandalous secrets, and growing feelings for Jackson, Jo must make a choice—risk it all for a shot at happily ever after? Or stand by and watch as, once again, what goes up, must come down. Warning: Contains catty drag queens, stolen puppets, pesky therapists, cashmere goats, and bourbon—lots and lots of bourbon.
