The Lonely Bachelor

Laurie Clayton is the sister of Mandy Clayton (from LONELY BILLIONAIRE). Having no baby and no husband, Laurie is stuck in the thankless job of flight attendant. Tired of being gracious to drunken frequent fliers she offers to baby-sit for friend who lives on an apple orchard near Niagara Falls. There in the world's most romantic spot, she meets confirmed bachelor Cooper Buckingham who watches while baby Morgan tosses Laurie's car keys over the falls. What to do? Offer the woman and baby a ride home? Why not? Cooper even offers to help pick apples. Everybody's happy, right? Wrong. Cooper doesn't want to play house or commit to anything permanent and Laurie needs a man who will stick around. Hearth and home and all the apples you can eat. Isn't that enough?
