Mary Wilson was born and raised in Texas, but by the time she became an adult she'd grown tired of her off-the-wall family and moved Los Angeles to build a career for herself. Mary is an expert chef who has opened an upscale bakeshop, but some bad press and a severe rent increase could put her out of business. Desperate to keep the store afloat, Mary decides to bite the bullet and go back to Texas for a visit; her plan is to bring along her fiancé Brent, introduce him to her folks, and hope their engagement gifts will bring enough cash to pay off her creditors. However, a severe allergic reaction prevents Brent from going; Mary can't afford to postpone the trip, so she brings along Brent's twin brother Jake, an irresponsible jailbird, to impersonate her fiancé. Jake wins the heart of Mary's family, and they both develop feelings for each other. Lucy, Mary's childhood friend tries to seduce Jack, as she knows about the whole reality. But Jake gave up his heart for Mary, in the meantime Brent pick her up back to LA. But soon he also realizes that they both are not made for each other, they cancelled the wedding, at last Marry confesses her love to Jack, and they both get married.
