Single dad, Cameron, has tried to juggle his business with childcare for his two-year-old daughter, since losing his husband in an accident.
Nannies last a day. Some don't even make it through the front door, particularly when they meet Deefur, the Great Dane who guards Cam's home with his huge paws and a bark deeper than thunder. Deefur is looking after his tiny pack, and he takes his job very responsibly, but he's big and strong, and he's too much for Cam to handle on top of everything else.
Something has to give.
Enter Jason, a teacher in training who picks up extra cash as a manny. He's the only person who can make it past the barrier of Deefur's protective streak, a veritable dog whisperer.
In short order, Jason cares for little Emma, somehow puts Cam's house in order, and on top of that, saves Deefur from being re-homed.
Next on Jason's list is healing the heart of a lonely widower in the hopes that he can show Cam how to love again.
