Renee has never understood the appeal of living in a small town where the Fourth of July festival is the biggest event of the entire year. Still, there's nothing better to do, and Renee winds up braving the crowds for a chance to see the fireworks.

Cara is recently divorced, and decides to attend the festival for the first time. She's looking to mingle with the locals and make a new home for herself far from her cheating ex-husband. When Cara and Renee meet, the two instantly hit it off. There’s one small problem -- Cara isn't a lesbian.

But will these two women find more than a simple holiday celebration to quench their hearty appetites? What happens when the heat of July proves to be far too hot to handle for either one of them?
