Charlie's going to meet the woman who will help change him from a TOXIC BACHELOR into a whipped yet happy husband. How do I know this? Let the excerpt give it away:
"From what he'd read of her, she was an impressive young woman, and the only other thing he knew about her was that she was thirty-four years old. He had no idea what she looked like, and had only spoken to her on teh phone. She had been professional and businesslike, but had sounded kind and warm... She was young, but allegedly capable... No matter how well trained and capable she was, she also had some powerful connections... He noticed a sign inviting neighborhood women to come to a group twice a week, to talk about preventing child abuse."
Note that Charlie's the one who wants a high society woman to stay at home -- BUT DOES HE????? I suspect this spitfire of an obviously well-heeled woman will change his mind! And this is coming off of Gray FINALLY falling for a woman who's not clinically insane (my question is why Gray pays for all the womens' therapy, while apparently not recognizing the he himself had some sort of mental illness where he was attracted to completely insane women).
Please also notice the unnecessary comma in the excerpt, along with the rather improper use of the word 'but' in the description of the youthful community center leader. Oh god, and it gets worse, particularly in the punctuation department (and becomes clear he's gotta get with her):
"She looked as though she should have been a model not a social worker."
