Eve Dupree is a successful fashion model with a brain. When she becomes bored with the modeling world, she chucks it and moves to Middlesex, Connecticut, where she can work on her first love: inventing gadgets. Growing up with a sister considered the "brains" in the family, Eve was always considered the "pretty one," so no one really knows about her scientific abilities. That is, until an explosion in her garage brings electrical engineer nerd Charlie Shepherd to her rescue. With her latest invention, a hovercraft, causing her some problems, Eve decides to take Charlie into her confidences and get his advice on perfecting the craft.

Charlie is instantly attracted to Eve, and over a game of pool at the Rack and Balls, the two get to know one another a bit better. Eve is enjoying small town life and the acceptance she finds there with the locals, including Charlie's mom and aunt, co-owners of the Pastry Parlor, a bakery that specializes in adult pastries. Someone, however, is more than a little bit interested in Eve and her inventions, and is seemingly trying to sabotage the hovercraft project. In between perfecting the hovercraft and trying to discover the saboteur, the attraction between Charlie and Eve flames out of control.
