When in Rome

A successful but career-driven New York City fashion editor, Beth Harper, is constantly searching for love, but her demanding job always gets in the way. When she impulsively travels to Rome for her sister's wedding, she discovers that she has been cursed with bad luck in love by a man she rudely rejected. The curse brings a whirlwind of persistent, albeit unwanted, suitors into her life, leading her on a chaotic and comedic journey to break the spell and find true love.
