Michele's parents are off for six months of touring and have left him alone to manage house and farm. Is he up to living on his own and doing for himself? Just when he's decided it is a good challenge, his sister, Kelly, reminds him that the temporary replacement teacher at the local school, Charlie Winters, will be occupying his parents' end of the house. A little company will be okay.

But when Michele meets Charlie, it's all wrong. Charlie is an attractive young woman who is expecting to share a house with Michelle, not a condescending, equally attractive, young man who insists that he be called Mitch.

It's all Kelly's fault for insisting on using his Italian name, and who calls their daughter Charlie, anyway?

Sharing a house is out of the question, but is the alternative any better?

A case of mistaken identity, and a freak storm throw Mitch and Charlie together and their determined efforts to avoid each other are overthrown.

A sweet contemporary romance.
