Everything appears to be perfect until a big-city developer plans to build condos to upend the town’s National Margarita Day traditions. Liz and Sam work together to stop the developer and rekindle their relationship in the process.

I don't even know where to start with this one....although I can't wait to see the sequel, It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Boneless Wings Night.
