Waking up in a motel room with a stranger is not something Christian schoolteacher Alexandra Mills has ever done. Panicked, she calls her best friend, Max Buchanan, to pick her up. Max drops everything, including the woman warming his sheets, to rescue Alex. He has loved her forever, but knows he isn't good enough. He has successfully built his own business and is now running for mayor. Soon, he will be able to prove to Alex that he is the man for her. Oblivious to her best friend's feelings, Alex tries to put the memory of her one-night stand behind her until a pregnancy test says she cannot. Being unmarried and pregnant means being fired from her job. Once again, Max steps in and offers to marry her. Alex is not sure what to do. Max is a playboy. At best, they can marry and divorce later. Max agrees, though he is determined to prove to Alex that she is the only one for him. Can a marriage for all the wrong reasons turn into a lifetime of love and happiness?
