Andy Devine wants a wife. Dating is hard and too messy, so he decides to cut out all the nonsensical riff-raff and cut to the point by posting ads for a spouse on lampposts and poles around the city. "Wanted: Wife. Landed, financially secure 40-yr-old male seeks healthy, athletic female for marriage and family." 

Julie Knott sees the ads and is immediately intrigued. She's not in the market for a new partner, especially since she's still dealing with the fallout from her cheating fiancé who had the audacity to tweet their breakup out to the world. As a TV reporter, this man in want of a wife seems like the ideal story for her to get her mind off herself. But Andy is far more intriguing than even the ads suggested, and soon she's wondering if maybe he's exactly what she's looking for. Now she has got to choose: get the story — or become it. What could possibly go wrong?
