It's the summer of 1999 in rural Minnesota, and eighteen-year-old Marcy Lewis is at a crossroads. Having graduated high school without committing to college, she wonders about the meaning of her life and what she is meant to achieve. On a trip with her sister to New York City, she meets up-and-coming musician Cole Hargrove, and the spark between the two of them is instantaneous. After Cole is inspired to write songs about her, he becomes one of the biggest names in music.

In the summer of 1977, Tom Hargrove loves his girlfriend Patty, The Grateful Dead, and playing bass with his band, The Hermits. Living in Newark, New Jersey, the lights of New York City just a river away, he's desperate for a change. There's a glimmer of hope when The Hermits are invited to LA for a once in a lifetime audition; at stake is more money than any of them have seen in their lives. Once in California, things are hardly idyllic. Tom's chance encounter with megastar Denise Peck could be their lucky break. As her interest grows, their connection threatens to unravel everything.
