Nothing's more epic than falling in love.

Emi Price has planned a sensational summer. She has her dream job, as a movie design intern, and the key to her brother's wonderful apartment, which he entrusted to her for two months as a graduation gift. She just needs to fulfill his one condition: that something great--something epic--take place there while he's gone. If she can avoid falling back into her on-again-off-again relationship with her ex-girlfriend, all will be perfect.

Then she and her best friend discover a mysterious letter at the estate sale of a Hollywood film icon. They can't resist chasing down the loose ends of his hidden life, and suddenly Emi's plans all feel a bit looser as well . . .

Because the acting legend's decades-old secret is about to stretch Emi's understanding of family, acceptance, and romance.
