Riley Chase is taking her sweet time to move on.

Working as a painter in the West Village in New York City, Riley is still reeling from the loss of her fiancé, Grant, three years later, until an unexpected rent hike forces her to move out of the apartment she shared with him. Riley takes it as a chance to start anew, at the encouragement of her therapist.

After answering a request for proposal to paint a mural in The Red Kettle, a new restaurant owned by none other than Jae Cho, the wickedly handsome chef who just moved into her old apartment.

As Riley and Jae work together to get the restaurant ready for opening night, Jae learns of Riley's well-meaning but ultimately futile attempts to make a dating app profile. Jae can't stand to watch his new neighbor flounder in love--or get kidnapped by a serial killer before she finishes painting his mural-- and promises to help get her dating life in order, complete with practice dates, in exchange for her painting the mural for free.

Riley questions what it means to "move on" from her late fiancé, and from the place she called home for so long---all while trying to not fall for her new neighbor who can't seem to help but feed her dumplings and take her on long walks through NYC.

Maybe it isn't too late for love after all.
