With little-to-no renovation experience, but a large sum of inheritance money, Lane enlists the help of her friend Matt-a mechanic by trade, handyman by practice, and hottie by nature. While their mutual attraction is undeniable, Matt and Lane have silently agreed that a friendship is the only thing that can ever exist between them.
