It's Summertime and it has been three and a half years since Autumn has left her job in New York at Vogue for a career working in fashion design with Dior designing bags and clothing while also being the manager at the local Dior store Miami, Florida.
When her close friend, Ivy throws a party that reconnects the friend-group, Autumn and Nic finally cross paths after 3 and a half years. Here, Nic finds out that Autumn has secretly been seeing NBA player Ja Morant as a simple summer fling.
Shockingly, Nic finds every emotion he had ever felt for Autumn that he could've sworn he tossed aside come back to life with a vengeance and he is determined to get Autumn, the girl of his dreams, back in his arms. As time passes and the more time the two spend together, the more their feelings reappear and grow stronger with each passing moment.
In the end, Autumn must decide who she wants to spend the rest of her life with, even if that means starting all over again.
