Mark Nagle leaves his better job and home in Seattle when his 6-year-old orphaned niece Holly, who stopped communicating after her mother's death, isn't allowed to pass to the next grade. He moves back in with his single brothers Alex and Scott, a contractor and a brilliant but jobless biological researcher, and tries to impose "child-friendly" house rules while technically their guest. New to the island town is Maggie Conway, who bought a toy shop and needs her sister Kate's support plus interns after firing the experienced manager to try a child-oriented concept. It appeals particularly to Holly, and babysitting her enables romance to bud between Maggie and handsome Mark, but his local ex may snatch him back.—KGF Vissers
