John "Soap" MacTavish is pretty easygoing. His friends know him as extroverted, friendly, and a whole lot of fun. It's not hard to forget that he's a trained killer, assigned to Task Force 141. He gets along well with just about everyone he meets, but there's one girl in particular that catches his eye.

Lavender Campbell is a medical-surgical nurse. Though she's fairly quiet, she enjoys helping people, her presence one that the other soldiers she works with can feel comfortable in. She likes her life simple, and she keeps it that way. That is, until she's placed at the base where the notorious Task Force 141 is stationed. She doesn't expect to be placed in the unit where the 141 recieves medical care, and she definitely doesn't expect to get to know them.

It turns out that Soap's family is coming to visit with high expectations, and, after seeing his friends in relationships, he is feeling particularly in need of a girlfriend. Even if it's a fake one. And it just so happens that there's a certain nurse that's perfect for the position. Can he persuade Lavender to play the part?
