| Plot Summary of Special Delivery |
|---|
"This is the story of a 59 year old bachelor, Jack Watson. He owns the best boutique in Beverly Hills and has two great children who are the light of his life, Julie and Paul.
Everything was smooth sailing for him until he falls in love with Amanda Robins. She is a recent widow and the mother of two married women, but even this is not the problem. The only problem is that one of her two married daughters happens to be Jack's daughter-in-law!
As if convincing their children to accept their relationship was not hard enough, they are faced by another unexpected gift that neither of them thought possible! What Amanda beleives to be signs of menopause turns out to be pregnancy! Although, there were some problems related to aborting the child or keeping it but everything settles down and they decide to have the baby even at their age. They not only feel young again but are blissfully happy in spite of the obstacles and oppositions around them.
