Professor Courtney Wells has waited long enough and is going to have a baby on her own. Parenthood isn’t for the faint of heart but she’s well educated, self-sufficient and has finally accepted her limitations where men are concerned. But then she meets military-man-turned-maid Ian Hamilton who leaves her questioning all she thought she knew about herself. Mixed Martial Arts fights and working for his buddy’s cleaning business used to be enough for Ian until he met Courtney. Now he’s seeing forever and family… with her. But can he teach a college professor about love?
