Jenny's week isn't going well. She loses both her job and her apartment and is forced to move back home with her parents. At least she'll be living in a loft over the garage instead of in a dreaded basement. Unable to get a job to suit her qualifications, she finds herself working at her father's hardware store, mixing and delivering paint to contractors. Thinking she couldn't possibly have a job more unsuited to her abilities, she soon realizes her mistake when she finds herself standing shoulder to shoulder with a cranky house painter who is impatiently explaining the intricacies of using a paint sprayer to her.

Charles had been hearing stories for years about Jenny, aka Snow White, and when he finally meets the paragon, he realizes the stories were truer than he'd thought. Unfortunately, he and the paragon can't seem to get along, which is a problem since he needs her help or he won't be able to fulfill the biggest contract he's ever been given.
