Elliott Robinson does everything precisely the same way every day, arriving to unlock the front door of his small town Robinson's Hardware store at exactly the same time every morning. When a winter storm blows gift sales rep, Lulu Davis, into town, predictable, sedate Elliott doesn't know what hit him. But when the storm clears and the roads are plowed, it's time for Lulu to leave. That's when Elliott realizes he has to do something radical or he could lose this flamboyant woman forever.
