The young woman in question is named Amelia, a spirited and optimistic American who has just ended her long-term relationship with her boyfriend. In an effort to heal her heartbreak, she decides to take a solo trip to Verona, a city known for its charm and romance.
When Amelia arrives at the villa she booked, she is shocked to find out that it has been double-booked, and she will have to share the space with a British man named Thomas. Thomas is a cynical and reserved man who is also recovering from a recent breakup, but unlike Amelia, he is not interested in making new connections or friends.
Initially, Amelia is annoyed by Thomas's aloofness and lack of enthusiasm for her ideas of exploring Verona. However, as the two spend more time together, they start to open up to each other and share their personal struggles with relationships and love.
As they explore Verona, visiting historic landmarks and indulging in the local cuisine, Amelia and Thomas begin to develop feelings for each other. But just as they start to open up to the possibility of a future together, Thomas receives a call from his ex-girlfriend, who wants to reconcile.
Amelia is heartbroken but makes the tough decision to let Thomas go and return home to America. At the airport, Thomas catches up with her and confesses his true feelings, telling her that he wants to be with her instead of his ex.
The two share a passionate kiss, and the movie ends with Amelia and Thomas walking off into the sunset together, ready to start a new chapter in their love story.
