Suzanne Morris, a 32 year old Science teacher and girls softball coach were once again working with her two best friends Kristin Ballou, teaching Spanish and Angie Gomez, teaching Math at a new high school. With Angie married, Kristin divorced and Suzanne, single. Convincing herself her life was too busy and complicated to seek out a lasting relationship. Especially since her parents were divorced so did not have a warm and fuzzy feeling about marriage.
Until, Brett Murphy entered upon the scene. Their first meeting at one of her girls softball games, not so friendly; even though they both had this unusual feeling they would like to try to connect. Their eyes briefly meeting with Suzanne definitely interested with her subconscious thinking ‘I really like that guy’; while Brett terrified of what he was feeling in his heart, thinking stay as far away for her as possible. Fueled by his miserable marriage and horrible divorce. Always on the prowl for anyone who would not result in the word, love.
Brett’s lifestyle to insure he would never fall in love again was to constantly date women who also constantly dated with no desire to marry.
Their problem being, each and every time they came face to face, they each wanted to make wild passionate love so would then show their arrogant or bossy side of their empty hearts so the other party would retreat. Finally figuring out a way to come together, only to once again retreat. The two of them playing a cat and mouse game, never really showing their true feelings
Their final effort to understand each other happening when Brett, at the end of the softball championship and in the pouring down rain, they sat down in the messy equipment room and watched the rain and talked. Finally talking out their problems and agreeing they could not live without the other in their life and entered the full speed ahead highway to eternal love and happiness, with no stop signs.
