It is an English-language remake of the 2016 German film SMS für Dich, itself based on a novel by Sofie Cramer.

Given a new corporate mobile phone, Rob chats with his workmates Lisa and Billy, who encourage him to date again.

Simultaneously, Mira opens a box given to her by John's parents, containing clothes and the engagement ring he never had the chance to give her.

Rob begins to receive private, lovesick messages from a mystery woman on the new work mobile phone.

Deciphering a text, Rob deduces the texter will be going to a specific opera at The Met, so decides to stay for all performances until he finds her.

He finally finds her and introduces himself, both discovering her name is Mira Ray and exchanging personal mobile numbers.

The next night they make dinner together at her place, Mira falls asleep afterwards, and Rob takes to the sofa.

He swears that Mira has transformed him and begs that she give him a second chance, proposing they meet where he first began to hear the music again.
