Ordered by Jupiter, to keep their matchmaking hands off mortals, Cupid and Venus resort to subterfuge, determined to help Southern belle lawyer, Merrill Prescott, and construction worker, Jason Stavros, fall in love and live happily ever after. Then they discover that Jupiter plans to seduce Merrill and wants Cupid and Venus out of the way. Merrill Prescott can't believe she just became legal co-guardian to a dog worth seventy-five million dollars. Not only does she have to move in with sexy, hard-working, Jason Stavros, baby-sit the pampered pooch, fend off a pair of greedy dog-napping relatives, control a pair of crazy interior decorators (Cupid and Venus undercover), she is saddled with a grandmother determined to find the 'right' Southern gentleman husband for her. She just doesn't have the energy to fall in love. But Jason Stavros is just too tasty to resist, even though she gives it a good try. Jason Stavros thinks Merrill is a hot-house Southern belle dabbling at her law practice - until she moves in with him. Earthy, sexy, down-to-earth Merrill throws him and his preconceptions of her out the window. With Jupiter's interference, the odds are not in favor of the Love Gods, but their reputations are at stake! Can Cupid and Venus save the dog, avoid the wrath of Jupiter, and show a Southern belle and a working man they were meant for each other forever?
