Hot off the Press

Newbie reporter Tess is in charge of writing the movie column for her paper. She meets Mike, the movie critic from her rival paper, by chance at the movie theater. A former star reporter, Mike acts like Tess is a spoiled princess because she's from a wealthy family, and every time he sees her, he makes fun of her and half-jokingly hits on her. This day is no different, but Tess loses her patience with Mike's teasing. She challenges him to a wager to see which of them can get published on the front page first. And so begins a passionate battle between reporters. They have no idea that a different kind of passionate destiny is in store for them, too!
