Brenda Maxwell's new interior design client tells her to "paint, wallpaper, whatever" his hundred-year-old landmark mansion, "but for God's sake, don't go overboard." When she figures her grandiose plans will fit handily into his edict's whatever" section, they're launched into a constant head-bumping mode.
Brenda's poor money management skills (that's his view, but what does he know?) and lawyer David Hasbrough's ridiculous need to control her life (that's her well-reasoned evaluation of the situation) combine to keep the battle going. Is this couple's romantic goose cooked? Well, she can't be near him without sparks flying and goose bumps popping out everywhere. But that mansion has to be done right!
