Ex-baseball star and single dad, Rusty Reisse thinks he has it all, until his son's fancy private school gives him an ultimatum. Rusty puts his broadcasting career on hold to spend the summer in a rented cottage in the country with his boy, Tommy.

His plans for a great bonding vacation are blown apart when Meg Gunderson shows up with her son, claiming the house is hers. Forced to share the space, Rusty is hell bent on getting her out while Meg schemes to send Rusty packing.

Admitting only to himself she's a better mother than he is a father, Rusty isn't taking any condescending pointers from this snarky schoolteacher. So what if she's hot? But there's something about Meg that draws his son. Could this smart-mouthed babe be the mother Tommy needs? Over Rusty's dead body.
