So she's got an early-warning swoo alert. Then Jack Treadwell walks into her life.Between his motorcycle and his adventure-seeking attitude, Jack has all the trappings she can't resist and should. Still, is that the real Jack? Something tells her he may be more dentist than biker. But is he father material? Because swoo aside, Kat's a mom first. And the man who wins her heart must first win over her boys.
