Since his father's death years ago, Jack Quinn has been his mother's self-appointed protector. Jack is a successful sports writer living in Chicago near Elyse, his mother. Corresponding on Facebook and Skype with an old friend who is very rich and now living in San Francisco, Elyse makes a trip to visit her friend Ben McMahon who has been widowed for 3 years. So unlike his sensible mother, Jack can't allow her to travel by herself. Running into a strange woman at the airport while waiting on their ride, Jack is in flames over the immediate magnetism of the woman.

Upon learning the woman of his interest is no other than Mia McMahon, Ben's youngest daughter, Jack couldn't be happier. Spending some time together it is soon apparent that neither is happy about the allegiance between their parents. They are definitely caught up in the searing sexual magnetism with each other in a few short days. Setting rules, the no strings attraction soon changes to breaking all the rules. Professing their desire to painlessly part when the time comes, true feelings turn very quickly to desiring something permanent and forever. Misunderstandings over their children cause friction between Elyse and Ben which precipitates Elyse returning home and giving up her dream of happiness and companionship.

Intending to accept a new offer in Los Angeles to remain closer to Mia, the floor falls out of Jack's plans and the offer no longer stands. Returning home with the intent to find a new job in San Francisco, a financial windfall awaits Jack, his sisters and his mother from an unknown Great Aunt from Ireland that changes everything for him in realizing his dream of the one true forever.
