When Eros (aka Cupid) is expelled from Olympus for defying Jupiter after falling in love with Orion, she is banished to what she believes to be hell. We call it New Jersey. If she ever wants to go back to the comforts of her old life, she will have to find love for three couples, without the use of her powers.
Eros, now calling herself True, immediately finds her first project in Charlie and believes finding him love will be a piece of cake.
Charlie is new at school and eager to break out of his old image of band geek and luckily falls in with the right crowd on his first day. But music is still his passion. That is, until he meets Katrina...

Too bad True thinks any girl Charlie talks to is perfect for him. Can she get out of her own way and help these two find love or will she fail her first task and never find her way back to Olympus?
