What do you get when you put off marriage and babies too long? LEFTOVERS.
Call her an anti-feminist, but Rose Thornton doesn't care about 'having it all.' She just wants a husband and kids of her own to make up for inheriting the step-family from hell at the age of ten. Impending marriage to her boss John Worthington (the third, and a doctor no less!) bodes well for the dream...until she catches him with a hussy who turns out to be pregnant with his child.
Out of a job, temporarily bunking with a girlfriend, but still fiercely attached to her goal, Rose goes the Murphy Brown route, with only two minor glitches to solve: no money...no sperm. She gets the finances handled, then proceeds with daddy donor options: there's the "baby back-up" (her ex-beau who promised to do the deed if they managed to hit forty still childless); the Internet sperm bank (who knew swimmers were only a click away?); and...well...there's dating.
Meanwhile, there's also Sam Sheridan--father of two daughters and married to Rose's sister, Angie. Only Angie's currently on hiatus in Borneo "finding herself" and Sam's bi-coastal job's got him needing someone to watch the girls. Who better than a family member like jobless, homeless, Rose?
Treading in her sister's stilettos is pathetic enough...but when Rose finds herself falling for Sam, it's her worst nightmare come true. Talk about leftovers!
