No More Simon Says is a captivating story filled with heartfelt moments, emotional dilemmas, and the complexities of love and self-discovery. It explores themes such as self-discovery, the strength of friendship, and whether love can conquer all.
Penelope (Penny) Hunter has spent the past six years building a life with Simon McDonnell, the man she met at university and believes she's destined to marry. With her career on track and dreams of a proposal on the horizon, Penny is confident that her future with Simon is secure.
But Simon is comfortable living life on his terms, indulging in weekends with his mates and outdoor adventures. His sense of contentment is abruptly shattered when he learns of his father's infidelity, triggering a crisis that forces him to question his relationships and potential failings. Simon breaks up with Penny.
Devastated and heartbroken, Penny leans on her close-knit group of friends for comfort and support. As the months pass, Penny begins to heal and open herself to new possibilities, even feeling a spark of interest toward a charming colleague.
Meanwhile, Simon's internal turmoil pushes him into increasingly reckless outdoor adventures, culminating when he decides to hike the Cradle Mountain Summit and gets trapped in a storm. The experience jolts him into realising what he truly wants: Penny. Now, Simon must prove he's worth a second chance, but Penny must decide if rekindling their romance is what she truly wants.
Can Simon overcome his past mistakes? Will he win Penny back? Or is it too late?
