Love Tucson

Her grumpy neighbor wasn't part of the plan. After her soul-crushing breakup, Haley Kineman is stepping out of her comfort zone, moving to sunny Tucson, Arizona, and shooting for the stars-literally. When she's not working as a phlebotomist, Haley's striving to meet her celebrity crush who's filming locally. Haley has even enlisted her grumpy next-door neighbor-affectionately nicknamed Yeti-to help her get onto the movie set. With his long enviable locks, masculine beard, and alpine mountain physique, he's an obvious choice for an ally. All Yeti wants is to quietly develop software in his home office, but Haley throws his protective nature into overdrive after being injured in an incident. Then Yeti has no choice but to accompany Haley on her sight-seeing, thrift-shopping, iguana-saving adventures. But Haley's bright demeanor keeps messing with his head, making him consider things that aren't possible. Because with Yeti's damaging past, no woman would want him. As their friendship deepens, Haley's not sure if she should stick to her star-studded plan, or if a real love story is closer to home.
