Shattered by events he’s unwilling to share with his daughter, Zeke claims that a date with her teacher is inappropriate. But now school’s out… Nell bonded with Claire, her favorite student, and she wouldn’t mind getting to know Claire’s appealing dad. But he’s clearly reluctant to get involved. She’s ready to let it go, but Claire’s not. And a matchmaking 8-year-old is a force to be reckoned with.
