Tippy Meadowcroft and Dave Sherman are the definition of oil and water. Whether they are clashing on the pickleball court or bickering over island business, these two lifelong enemies agree on one thing: they are better off keeping their distance. However, a messy, unforeseen predicament forces them into an arrangement neither of them wants—a fake dating charade that promises to turn their quiet island lives upside down. To reach her goals and save her beloved oyster farm, Tippy must convince the observant residents of Greensea Island that she and her arch-nemesis are genuinely smitten. Between ridiculous "come-hither" looks, forced public displays of affection, and the occasional fake kiss, the line between performance and reality begins to blur. Utilizing the classic enemies-to-lovers trope, this small-town romantic comedy explores whether two people who are convinced they have nothing in common can find a "ferry tale" ending after all. As they navigate the watchful eyes of their neighbors and the undeniable tension brewing beneath their rivalry, Tippy and Dave must decide if their fake relationship is just a means to an end or the start of something truly real.
