Molly Moser owns a small bookstore in downtown Milwaukee. All she wants to do is sit inside and read, even as Aunt Prudie Judy wants her to get out and meet new people, especially the nice young men she keeps trying to fix her up with. But Molly sees things a little differently when she meets Jake Nilsen, a standup comic and former college swimmer, who's in town to perform at a local comedy club. Can Jake bring shy Molly out of her shell and help her see that there's more to life than just books?
