Nathaniel Cavanaugh is in Lobster Cove for the summer to spend quality time with his kids after his estranged wife’s tragic death. Successful and well-connected, he is on the fast-track to the highest legal positions in the country, but his career has taken its toll on his family life. After an accident throws Val nearly into his lap and costs her a job opportunity, Nathaniel surprises himself by overlooking her colorful eye-makeup, pink fur purse, and lack of qualifications and offers her a job as his nanny for the summer.

Valdosta McKinley is applying for an internship at a Paris Art Institute. She knows Nathaniel could never develop feelings for a girl from a trailer in the rural West Virginia holler, she learned that lesson the hard way years earlier.

Will the pursuit of their professional goals require Nathaniel and Val to give up the dream of being a family?
