Synopsis: Amanda Bodine''s Boss is so…bossy!

The hard-nosed newspaperman will only assign reporter Amanda Bodine fluff pieces about dog shows. She longs to prove herself with a serious front-page story. But then her own family becomes newsworthy. Suddenly, Ross Lockhart is sitting beside her at Sunday dinner, interviewing her relatives. And he almost seems…like part of the family. Until she realizes he''s after information that will tarnish the Bodine name! Time to teach the boss about the real heart of the matter: love.
