Sophie Newton is determined to prove herself to her father, who insists she could never run a successful business. She throws herself into her beachside taco stand, The Sandy Tortilla, and makes it her primary goal to show him that he’s wrong, one burrito at a time. When she loses her summer help, Sophie rushes to find a warm body to help take orders. She finds that body—and what a body!—in Montgomery Winters, a struggling actor from LA. It may not be show business, but Mont figures he can write an order for fish tacos. The money’s dead useful, though he finds it’s the curvy company that really keeps him around. As Sophie and Mont work together, they discover an intense attraction between them. But when Mont's agent calls him about a career-making audition, he decides he must pursue the opportunity, even though he can't get Sophie out of his head. Now, Sophie must choose between chasing after the man she's falling for and the business she's fought so hard to build.
