Loretta, who partially resents Alan for eclipsing her in popularity, is prepared to grin and bear it through their shared appearances - until she's kidnapped by an eccentric billionaire named Abigail Fairfax ( Daniel Radcliffe), who believes he's uncovered the titular Lost City around which her novel is set and wants her to help him find the location of its hidden tomb. After Loretta practically phones in the ending of the book and cuts the plot off just shy of any HEA (a decision that would have most romance readers rioting in the streets), her publicist Beth ( Da'Vine Joy Randolph) organizes a last-minute tour for her to try and regain some of her audience's goodwill, on which she'll be accompanied by the cover model who's been portraying Dash since the release of her very first novel, Alan Caprison (Tatum). Thanks to the wild success of her book series, she's earned a legion of devoted fans who are avid for the latest installment, The Lost City of D, in which the intrepid lead character Lovemore, accompanied by main hero Dash, has set out to find a legendary treasure enclosed inside a long-lost tomb. Loretta Sage (Bullock) - and no, that's actually not her author pen name - has been feeling disillusioned with her work as of late.
