Ten years ago—in their wild college days—Meg Danley and her two best friends made a vow that they'd all be married and settled by the time the millenium rolled around. Meg is settled. She has everything she needs—a great apartment, an exciting career. Or so she thinks—until her friends arrive on her doorstep determined to fulfill the vow. A serious manhunt is what they're proposing. Then they spot Jack Elliot—the attractive single man who's come to visit his mother—and declare him perfect for Meg. Even the fact that Jack plans to return to his life in Maine doesn't discourage them. And suddenly Meg's no longer arguing. Suddenly a wedding by 2000—with Jack as the bridegroom—is a definite possibility.
