Robin Masterson's ten-year-old-son, Jeff, thinks he needs a dog more than anything in the world and there just happens to be one right next door! However, the friendly black lab belongs to Cole Camden, the unfriendliest man in the neighborhood. Cole hasn't always been so solitary and aloof. The deaths of his wife and son have embittered him and that is something Robin could understand. Her own much-loved husband died when Jeff was just a baby. Still, Jeff persists and soon his mom and Cole are looking at each other in a whole new way.
