Review
Maddie is fresh out of being dumped by the new California state representative, full of law school debt, no job and no life. She gets an adjunct professor gig at a small university in Nebraska, near where she grew up. She drives across the country with all of her belongings without a plan, or a place to stay. Brahm is a divorced professor at the university, and father of two girls. His ex is also a professor at the university, and away on an archeological dig, which means Brahm is solo parenting the two girls, a dog and a frog. Brahm hires a nanny through a service to help with the girls, guess who that nanny ends up being?
