"When the woman he connects with on social media shows up unannounced, a shy but good-hearted romantic must find a way to win her heart when she mistakenly believes his good looking roommate (Whose picture he used) is the man she fell in love with."
Title: Love me Tinder
(Or reverse it so the lead is a shy woman who has a good looking roommate if you would prefer a female protagonist)
I suggest the premise be re-engineered from top to bottom.
It's not magic.? The poet has? a natural gift for writing poems that make women swoon.? But he is utterly tongue-tied in face-to-face encounters.
He's not kidnapped.? Rather he monetizes his gift via a web service. He writes prose and poems for lonely hearts on web dating sites.? It's a lucrative gig.
And then (inciting incident) he falls hopelessly in love with one of women a client has hired him to woo.
IOW: do an updated version of the Cyrano de Bergerac story.
FWIW
