Pre-law student, Mila Thompson, is eager to graduate, pass her LSATs, and get accepted into law school; all while taking care of her grandfather who has Alzheimer's. Seeing as her parents have passed away, and she only has a great-aunt and part-time nurse to help, Mila feels that she just can't get ahead. That is, until she meets Gino.
Super-senior, Gino Goretti, has no interest in graduation because it means that he will have to go home and begin his responsibilities at the family business. After meeting Mila, things start to look up for both of them. But when Gino's family life blows back on Mila, action must be taken. While Gino struggles to figure out their next move, Mila is forced to take matters into her own hands.
