Sometimes love can find you in the most unexpected places...

Alexandria Dunn lives a very quiet, boring life as an IT customer service rep, until she’s startled by a flash of color at her window one day. Almost overnight, she becomes obsessed with birds and bird watching, and when she learns that a foremost avian expert will be leading a bird watching tour at a local wildlife sanctuary, she signs up immediately.

But when Alexandria shows up in the parking lot, the rain is pouring on her and a very colorful companion. Nell Ortiz shows up in a bright yellow rain slicker, and an even brighter smile, and Alexandria is almost immediately smitten.

The avian expert is a no-show, and due to bad weather, everyone else who had signed up for the tour wants a refund. Except Alexandria. And Nell takes her on a tour of the wildlife sanctuary that changes both of their lives... forever.
