      Daphne had always loved the way Peter, her fiancé, told their story. How they met, fell in love, and moved back to his lakeside hometown to start a life together. He was really good at explaining it... until she realized that he was actually in love with Petra, her childhood best friend. And so Daphne begins her new life: in beautiful Waning Bay, Michigan, far from her family and friends, but with an idyllic job as a children's librarian (which barely makes ends meet). So she considers sharing an apartment with the only person who might understand how she feels: Miles Nowak, Petra's ex-boyfriend. Scruffy, chaotic, and prone to listening to sad ballads for comfort, Miles is the complete opposite of the practical, discreet Daphne, so private about her personal life that her coworkers joke about whether she's in the FBI or a protected witness. The two new roommates mostly avoid each other, until one day, while drowning their sorrows, they strike up a fragile friendship and hatch a plan. And if, in order to follow through on that plan, they have to share pictures of their summer adventures together--pictures that lead to the wrong conclusions--who could blame them? But Daphne is only doing it to be seen, of course, because she would never start a new chapter in her life by falling in love with her ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend's ex-boyfriend... right?

      Bienvenido al Heartbreak Cafe. Ven por la comida. Quédate por amor. La madre de Dell Haley siempre decía que había dos cosas de las que un hombre nunca se hartaba: un buen plato y un buen abrazo. Dell es una artista en la cocina, por lo que lo primero está asegurado. En cuanto a los abrazos, su olfato le dice que está recibiendo una buena ración de ellos fuera de casa. Y entonces él aparece muerto. Sin dinero ni estudios, Dell se aferra a lo único que nunca le ha fallado: su habilidad culinaria. Lo arriesga todo para abrir una cafetería en un restaurante abandonado, a la que bautiza "Heartbreak Café" en honor al clásico de Elvis que le cantaba a los corazones rotos. Para su sorpresa, la cafetería se convierte en un centro neurálgico del pueblo, y le depara algunos amigos muy peculiares. Dell se pregunta en cuál de ellos puede confiar para que la ayude a encontrar la verdad que se esconde detrás de su corazón roto...
