What is When Love Springs about?

Rory Richards (Rhiannon Fish) is a junior PR executive with a big promotion on the line. Hoping to mellow out, she heads to a quaint bed and breakfast on Lilac Lake with her parents and sister. Her mom and dad are going to renew their vows in the place they first met. While there, Rory runs into her ex, Jason (Callan Colley). Panicked, she says the B&B’s future owner, Noah (James O’Halloran), is her new boyfriend. Luckily for Rory, Noah has problems of his own. The B&B is failing and his father is ready to sell. To save his family legacy, Noah’s invited a famous travel blogger to review the place. But, he’s not ready with the rebrand of the B&B to capture its charm. So, Rory and Noah strike up a deal. She’ll lend her PR expertise if he continues to go along with the impulsive lie of being her fake boyfriend. As they work together to get the B&B ready, real sparks start to fly between this fake couple.
