Charlie agrees to help her stepmother find grooms for her sheltered stepsisters. In exchange, the stepmother will release her stronghold on the stores budget. After all, one good deed deserves another, right? But, Charlie has no idea what her hearts in for when...

Can a guy ever get a break? The couple never factored in falling in love with each other. Now, faced with losing all their families ever wanted, Charlie and Alex must choose: Do they live their families dreams or do they finally live their own?
