The handsome, new noisy neighbor Drew Landry is afraid the elderly people living next door are being taken advantage of. Determined to help, he shares his suspensions with the local authorities.
Just as the wheels of justice are beginning to move, Drew discovers the elderly residents are loved and well cared for by Tina, who in turn is cared for by them. Drew and Tina work together to prove to the authorities that all is well in the Harrington household as their attraction for one another grows.
When a sudden takeover attempt appears to be on the horizon for Tina’s company, it looks like Drew may be the one behind it. Despite falling in love, Tina fears she’s about to lose everything she holds dear. It seems Drew’s attraction may have been for her company and not her after all.
