Mattie Ross is probably the last person who should be doling
out good counsel to anyone on anything. Still smarting after
being left at the altar two years earlier, she is strapped
with debt, has sworn off men, routinely buries herself in
her work and despite her well-proportioned figure, remains
haunted by childhood taunts of "Fatty Mattie." But to her
publisher at the Chicago Gazette, and readers, she is their
latest advice columnist, The Plate Spinner, a self-assured
working parent to adorable fake children and multi-tasking
savant. Enter Nick Derosa, the twin brother of Mattie's cold-footed
fiancé who is trying to get back on his feet after his
brother steals his identity and implicates him in an illegal
investment scheme. But thanks to Nick's legendary running
career, the publisher of the Chicago Gazette proposes a
wager: If Nick can train an out-of-shape working parent in
time to compete in the Chicago Marathon, he will contribute
enough to help Nick launch his own non-profit running club
for kids. Suddenly "Fatty" Mattie and Nick are thrust
together as the most unlikely of pairs and under a deadline
to put their trust issues aside and avoid another false
start in their lives.
