Stuck at a dead end job in New York City of a mega music record label, Catherine spends her days as life wrangler for the label\u2019s most difficult star (BRITTANY SNOW). But when Catherine is unceremoniously fired, and then comes home to find her long time fianc\u00e9 (JASON RITTER) in the arms of another woman, she decides that it\u2019s time for a change.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Selling off her engagement ring, Catherine moves back to her family home in Woodstock, to get back to what she has always wanted to do: write music. One night at the local bar, Catherine stumbles into handsome town doctor Noah (JAMES WOLK), and cannot deny the moment of magic between them. Little by little, Catherine starts to find herself, and write music, with the help of local legend, Lee Ann (KATEY SEGAL).
