Professional overachiever Charlie has spent the last four years consumed with building Flutter, the dating app she co-founded in college with two classmates. Despite Charlie’s own lack of dating experience—she’s never even had a boyfriend—Flutter is instantly successful. Perhaps too successful. After rejecting the romantic advances of her co-founder, Charlie finds herself unceremoniously ousted (probably just a coincidence).
Devastated and directionless, she books a last-minute flight to Europe to join her best friend on the Rally—an extravagant road trip where an eccentric cast of characters drives classic cars and parties their way through breathtaking locations. Despite feeling out of place among the glamorous guests, Charlie relishes her new freedom and indulges in the hedonism of the Rally, including a budding romance with financier James, the charming nephew of one of the organizers.
But just as Charlie begins to debug her malfunctioning life, she discovers that James was involved in her ousting. Reeling from yet another betrayal, Charlie realizes she can’t out-drive her past. To move forward, she must confront difficult questions about trust, love, and find a way to redefine her future on her terms.
