Penelope 'Penny' Pine rates everything. Her morning toast: 4/5 stars. A pigeon in the park: 2/5. It's how her meticulously ordered brain brings calm to a chaotic world.
But when her grandmother's charmingly crooked bookstore is threatened with eviction, Penny's internal rating system won't pay the bills. Enter ReviewVerse: a slick, mysterious app that promises cash for reviewing... anything. Desperate, Penny starts small, but soon discovers where the real money is.
Her first high-value target? Leo Vance, a handyman whose business, "Good-ish Fixes," has a disastrous 2.7-star rating. He's a walking, talking, glitter-exploding catastrophe... and he's maddeningly charming.
The more Penny documents Leo's hilarious mishaps for the app, the more her bank account grows. But as she engineers more "accidental" run-ins-from goat yoga debacles to upside-down bookshelf assemblies-the line between 'reviewer' and 'in love' starts to blur. Soon, she's faced with an impossible choice: write the ultimate five-star review that could save her grandmother's legacy, or protect the one undateable feeling that's starting to feel like home.
