Scott Grimes, Paul Butcher and Allie Gonino Co-Star
Kristy Swanson ("Operation Cupcake," "Buffy the Vampire Slayer") stars as a driven
business woman who follows her family to college in "A Lesson In Love" a Hallmark Channel
Original Movie World Premiere Saturday, April 12 (7p.m. ET/PT, 6C). Along with Swanson,
Scott Grimes ("ER"), Paul Butcher ("Zooey 101") and Allie Gonino ("The Lying Game") test if the
family who goes to school together, stays together.
Money can't buy happiness for career-driven mom Megan Mills (Swanson), or her family.
Even a multi-million dollar windfall from a company merger is not enough to make up for the
time that Megan lost with her husband, Mike (Grimes) and her twin children, Sean (Butcher)
and Zoe (Gonino), while building a career. When Mike leaves her and joins Sean and Zoe in
college, Megan realizes she must take drastic measures to bring her family back together. In
order to save her marriage and reconnect with her children, she enrolls alongside them as a
college undergrad.
Megan quickly discovers that rebuilding her family while surviving freshman year is
going to take much more than just business prowess and school spirit. Despite her attempts to
help her children adjust to college life, Sean and Zoe consistently reject Megan and are not
pleased to have their mom as a classmate. Even Mike is too busy with school - not to mention
a female professor - to appreciate her efforts. Megan only wants what is best for her family,
but begins to question if she still has a part in it. With a tempting job offer waiting for her back
at home, Megan must decide if she will drop out of campus life or if she has what it takes to
graduate with family honors.
