Why these tropes fit
Baseball player Bo Crutcher is on the cusp of a major league career when AJ, the son he never knew he had, unexpectedly shows up at his doorstep. Hired media consultant Kimberly van Dorn arrives to help Bo refine his public image, expecting a typical self-absorbed pro athlete, but instead discovers a man deeply dedicated to his vulnerable son. Forced to spend a winter together at frozen Willow Lake as Bo navigates single parenthood and Kim works to prepare him for the press, the pair grow closer, with Bo’s willingness to sacrifice everything for AJ teaching Kim to prioritize love and family over her original plans.
