The day Macy realizes her dream of owning her own store is never going to come true, she knows the only thing that's going to help her feel better is a large brownie sundae, complete with whipped cream and a cherry. She imagines how delicious it's going to taste, and once the sundae is cradled in her hands, she knows nothing is going to come between her and her favorite comfort food. Except something, or someone, does and suddenly she is covered in whipped cream. As is the man standing right in front of her, who hadn't been there a second ago.

All Tanner wants is a lousy ice cream to help him forget his lousy day, but before he's even stepped into one of the lines at the shop, his shirt is covered in something wet, cold, and sticky. Meeting the eyes of the woman who'd just tried to drown him with a sundae, he waits for an apology that never comes. Heading home, his ice cream forgotten, he hopes he'll never run into her again, but if by some freak coincidence he does happen to see her, he'll run the other way.

Except he does see her again. And he realizes running away is the last thing he wants to do.
