Meg The goal - go back to my hometown and open my beachside restaurant this holiday season. The reality - in order to do that I had to run the craft services van for the Hollywood movie that had come to town. The problem - movie star Connor Reed and his adorable daughter Ava had moved in next door to me and somehow as much as I tried to avoid them, they were everywhere I went. The even bigger problem - I liked that a little too much. I’d come home for a purpose and falling for a hot single dad wasn’t it. Connor The goal - I just needed to get this movie made and get my baby back to Hollywood. The problem - I hadn’t known about Ava until a few weeks earlier and as hard as I was trying to be a good dad, I wasn’t sure I knew how. My neighbour Meg seemed to have more of a clue than I did and I was drawn to her kindness and her realness and the fact that she treated me as more than just a pretty face.The even bigger problem - we’d be spending a summer Christmas together - that much was certain - could I walk away when the move was made - that much I didn’t know.
