Synopsis by Hal Erickson
The "perfect" family life of rock star Jon Mateos (A Martinez) is shattered when his Evie (Rosalind Allen) dies in a car accident while rushing to make a TV appearance with her husband. Now Jon must shoulder the burden of looking after his three children, whom Evie had raised all by herself while he pursued success. Unable to connect with his kids, Jon retreats into a nether world of booze and drugs--and Monica (Roma Downey) and Tess (Della Reese) must somehow help him get his act together before tragedy strikes his eldest daughter Samantha (Ivey Lloyd). TV journalist Kathleen Sullivan appears as herself.
