Everybody kept telling Jory Unger that she needed a man---her sister Missy, Lucas the maintenance man, her friend Toni when they met at the movies. Yet Jory wondered how she was supposed to find a man when her luck with men was so lousy. Besides, she had more important things to worry about---like how to stop her younger sister Missy from hanging out every night to all hours of the night with her new boyfriend, Joseph when she had moved into her Birmingham apartment to attend classes at the University Of Alabama. So when Jory went to Joseph's apartment to have a talk with him—only to end up telling her concerns to his older brother Caleb equally concerned he was spending too many late nights out with his new girlfriend, good looking as Caleb was, Jory never considered the pronounced divorced man as date material because his secretary and very possessive girlfriend was hanging all over him. Still, Jory was relieved when Caleb honored her request to talk his brother into backing off her sister and left his apartment with a last smile and little thought of seeing him again even when he had proved true to his word. Yet as circumstances repeatedly bring them together in further collusion to control their kid siblings' hanging out to all hours of the night, Jory finds herself thinking of Caleb more than she could have anticipated. The question is: is Caleb thinking of her in the same way?
