Tino Robbins's sister, Nica, and her husband, Jacob, are expecting their fifth child. Fortunately, Nica's best friend, Taylor Cochran, is back in town, released from PT and in need of a job.

After years in the service and recovering from grave injury, Taylor has grown a lot from the callow troublemaker he'd been in high school. Now he's hoping for a fresh start with Nica and her family.

Jacob's cousin Brandon lives above the garage and thinks 'Taylor the manny' is a bad idea. Taylor might be great at protecting civilians from a zombie apocalypse, but is he any good with kids?

Turns out Taylor's a natural. As he tries to fit in, using common sense and dry wit, Brandon realizes that Taylor doesn't just love their family—he's desperate to be part of it. And just like that, Brandon wants Taylor to be part of his future.
