Amanda (Sarah Michelle Gellar) is the owner/chef of a charming, formerly successful restaurant, which she inherited from her mother. While her cooking skills leave much to be desired, she is charming and attractive and not afraid to show her emotions. Tom (Sean Patrick Flanery) is a high-ranking executive at a famous department store. His hard-charging, practical manner has put him on the fast track to success. They would seem to have nothing in common. But a mysterious crab seller, a chance meeting in a food market, and something magical are about to change their lives – and bring them together.
