Keith Hanson is your typical college student -- the only things on his mind are getting decent enough grades to keep his dad off his back, and getting his girlfriend, Carly, into bed. And not necessarily in that order. But when his parents are killed in a tragic car accident on their way home from visiting him at Penn State, he's stunned to find that his father's will calls for him to be guardian to his fifteen year-old sister, Dana, and his twin seven-year-old siblings, Leo and Linda. Lisa Carle is tired of her wealthy father handing everything to her on a silver platter. She needs to prove that she can make her own way in the world. A social worker with Family Services, she's always the last one to leave the office at night, and never sees any reward for her hard work. Summer's here, so she sets two goals for herself: embark on a carefree summer romance to get her out of the office more, and second, prove to her boss, Dragon Lady Madeline, that she deserves to be promoted. One night, Dana disappears. Keith tracks her down to the driveway of her renegade boyfriend, Russell's house, inside a foggy-windowed car. He punches Russell, who unfortunately for Keith, happens to be the governor's son, which brings Keith to the attention of Family Services and Lisa. Keith unwittingly becomes a pawn in Madeline's diabolic plot and Lisa has to choose between following her ambition or her heart.
