Former foster kid Austin Taylor has always been a loner, so when he finds out he now co-owns a dilapidated farmhouse courtesy of a deceased widow he befriended after he fixed her lawn mower, he's inclined to keep it-- even if it comes with complications. Over a decade ago, Jose Romano became the backup parent to four kids. When he inherits half a house, he's busy recovering from his last relationship, building a business, and making sure said kids graduate. Selling would put money in his pocket and free him from DIY hell... and potential entanglement with Austin, his distressingly hot co-owner. Unfortunately, Joe's always been a pushover. With a little effort, Austin convinces Joe to fix the house before they sell. But as they handle surprise renovations, help Joe's kids navigate high school, and accidentally adopt a quartet of furry new mouths to feed, their run-down farmhouse starts to feel like the home Austin's never had. After a night of no-strings sex with Joe leaves Austin sure he's found his family, he starts playing for keeps. If only he can convince Joe that Austin-- and the fixer-upper-- are worth the risk.
