Description

Ten years ago, Norah and Andrew promised to meet on Christmas Eve if they're still single. Now the time has come, but will Andrew be waiting there for her?

Norah Jones is known for two things: sharing a name with a famous musician and always being single.

After another year of heartbreak, Norah fears spending Christmas alone. That is, until she remembers Andrew, the man she fell for ten years earlier. Fate pulled them apart, but not before they made a promise—if they're both still single on Christmas Eve 2019, they must stand under the clock at Bewley's Café on Grafton Street, Dublin.

So that's where Norah decides to go. To Dublin. To that clock. And, hopefully, to Andrew.

But it wouldn't be Christmas without a few surprises . . .
