Jeremy's made his own share of mistakes, but now at just 22 years old, he seems to be getting his life back on track with the help of his brother. The same brother who he's hated for more than half of his life. Then one day Jeremy meets Brooke at Brian's house unexpectedly. It's love at first sight for him and Jeremy is blown away, but Brooke comes with her own set of baggage. At the age of 18, she's already a mom to a one-year-old son.
