Tony award-winning actress Astor Hudson has just had the
worst day of her life. A beautiful young ingénue stole
the role Astor wanted for herself, and her fifteen-year-
old daughter Cosette was expelled from school for flashing
a gun. It's time to get out of the pressure cooker that
is New York and move back upstate to her hometown of
Glenhaven Park.
Transforming herself from her stage persona of Astor
Hudson back into small town Meg Addams is easier than she
expects, but Meg soon learns that even in her quaint
hometown, things have changed. Her childhood home just
sold for over a million dollars, the streets are filled
with Fancy Moms driving monstrous SUVs, and the local mom-
and-pop businesses are now trendy restaurants and
boutiques. It's enough to make a woman want to cry, but
Meg is determined to create a better life for Cosette and
herself, so she buys the only house in town that she can
afford; the one that's rumored to be haunted.
The possibility of a resident ghost becomes a lot easier
to take when Meg realizes that her teenage crush, Sam
Rooney, happens to live right next door. While Sam may
not remember the quiet girl Meg used to be, she certainly
remembers him, and she quickly discovers that her teenage
crush is turning into a very adult version of lust, a lust
Sam seems to share. When the friendly neighborhood ghost
begins knocking one night, Sam's only too eager to give
Meg and Cosette a refuge, especially when he and Meg end
up in each others' arms.
But Sam isn't interested in getting seriously involved
with anyone; he's still licking the wounds from his wife's
sudden death in a car accident three years ago, and
opening himself and his two teenage kids to that kind of
pain is not something he's willing to do again, ever. So,
while Sam tries to keep himself from becoming emotionally
attached to Meg, fate, with a little help from the ghost,
keeps pushing the two of them together.
What follows is an intense battle of wills, combined with
a maelstrom of past and present emotions that threatens to
destroy what little peace remains for Meg and Sam in their
small town. LOVE, SUBURBAN STYLE proves that you can't
reclaim the past, but you might be able to come to terms
with the present, and build a better future.
Fed up with her moody teenage daughter, Meg Addams decides
what they both need is a good dose of suburban
wholesomeness. But when they leave Manhattan behind for
Meg's humble blue-collar hometown, they find it crowded
with wealthy strangers and upscale boutiques. Settling into
a creaky fixer-upper, Meg finally spots a familiar face
right next door--and it belongs to none other than Sam
Rooney. The would-be love of Meg's high school life is now
a single dad, her daughter's new soccer coach--and a
neighborly ghost-buster whenever things go bump in the
night.
With three kids and an undeniable attraction between
them, Meg and Sam are in for some heart-racing, wee-hour
encounters that have nothing to do with spirits...but
everything to do with hearts.
