Tropes:
- Single dad!
- Grumpy/sunshine
- Angst

Jordan loves lacrosse. She loves the idea of being a counsellor at a lacrosse camp even more.
Rod is exhausted from being a single dad. But he loves teaching kids, and his summer camp is his pride and joy, so he finally decides to take on new staff.
He wasn’t expecting Jordan. And neither were expecting the explosion of chemistry between them.
Jordan’s only staying until July. Rod hasn’t got the time for anything serious. So they can’t develop feelings for each other. They won’t. Right?
