Synopsis

Penny Miller, a kindergarten teacher, has always dreamed of motherhood. Newly out of a three-year relationship - broken off by an ex claiming she is ‘too boring’ - she’s been considering her options for motherhood alone. When her brother's teammate suddenly needs to hire a nanny, on short notice, she agrees to help him out. Luke Campbell, a professional hockey player, is a playboy already on thin ice with his team because of his media image. When a past hookup drops his baby, which he had no idea about, at his doorstep during the playoffs, he begins to spiral. His teammate's sister accepts an offer to nanny his daughter and she brings the peace his life was lacking. Penny offers to marry Luke to help his reputation and keep his spot on the team in exchange for teaching her to let loose a little. Things are perfect until Luke’s ex comes back wanting to be a family with their daughter and at the same time Penny’s ex sees her becoming the confident girl he always wanted her to be. Will they give in to the comfortability of their past partners? Or are they ready to take a risk on a new love?
