With little money, a poor education and no luck when it comes to love, Hilary O'Neil (Roberts) answers a want ad and finds her whole world suddenly changed. Hired as the caretaker to a seriously ill young man (Scott), she unexpectedly discovers they have much in common, even though he is wealthy and intelligent. Their growing friendship quietly develops into a deep and powerful romance that ultimately tests the boundaries of true love. (jakelijan virallinen teksti)

About the only interesting thing about this film is how it is unable to conclude and fulfill even a single hint of the plot or subplot it sets in motion. We don't get to learn about the nature of the plot detour with Vincent D'Onofrio (originally and according to the script, he was some sort of rival in love with Geddes, however this line didn't make it past the test audience), the class conflict between the protagonists completely fails because the portrayal of the world that the character of Hilary comes from is completely abbreviated, unspoken, and after a while the film completely stops paying attention to it, the film is not even able to fulfill its commitment as stated in its title (because it also failed to make it through the test audience) and personally I still had a big problem believing that Geddes is straight because with every smile, sideways glance, and lowering of his eyes he completely denies it. Schumacher himself admitted he lost the reins on this one.
