Monica's life is certainly no fairy tale. She's failed at a relationship, at being a mother and at twenty-four, teaching is her only passion. She singles out Sean Beauvais, one of her student's fathers - at a parent teacher conference, and schools him about taking care of his son. Their exchange gets heated, but later, Sean realizes that he can use Monica's passion to his advantage; offering her a high-paying summer job being his son's live-in babysitter.Monica knows the rumors about Sean and his womanizing ways, but against her better judgment, she accepts his offer. She convinces herself that she has enough willpower to avoid her new, thirty-two year old sexy, summer boss - his chiseled chest, pretty green eyes and charm that just won't quit. But after only a few weeks in his crib, Monica finds it a struggle to keep her eyes off of Sean. Can she handle staying focused on her babysitting job for three months without being swept off of her feet by Milwaukee's finest bachelor? Or is Sean's game too much for the young, conservative teacher to handle?Having been heartbroken in the past, Monica is reluctant to play this dangerous game with a confirmed heart breaker. But it's what she doesn't know about Sean that she should be concerned about.
