What happens when a woman who wants her freedom meets a man who wants to love, honor, cherish--and change diapers?

Meet Charlie Feldman.  An almost-handsome fortysomething sportswriter whose biological daddy clock is ticking loud and clear.  Charlie wants a baby.  Badly.

Enter Lacy Gazzar, a sexy, feisty thirtysomething who's about to send her daughter off to college and finally dive into a grown-up life all her own.  Lacy's more than happy to help Charlie in his search for the perfect mommy.  She's willing to aid him through a hilarious and sometimes humiliating round of personal ads, relentless blind dates, and absolutely appalling encounters.  The one thing she isn't willing to do is have Charlie's baby.

But then they become friends.  Really good friends.  And one hot, magical, moonlit night--well, let's just say accidents will happen.

What comes next is laugh-out-loud, cry-your-eyes-out proof that the course of true love never runs smoothly--and the best-made plans between a man and a woman almost always go wonderfully awry.
