With no prospects, no money and no hair...Ruth finds herself traveling to her grandmother's small coastal town in order to figure out what she wants to do with her life.

Just as he's working up the courage to introduce himself, he realizes she's being set up with his traveling companion. Once more, Jude's intuition seems to have failed him and now he's regretting coming on the trip and having to watch the couple get to know each other for the next seven days.
