They are forced to cohabitate after Maggie runs short of money, causing a shock to Rose's world. However, they both have some things in common: they hate their stepmother, they would like to meet the grandmother they were cut off from when their mother passed away, and they are looking for men who will not turn out to be jerks (which does not turn out to be an easy task). ...
