Meet the Murphys, a family with never-ending bad luck. "Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong," it's Murphy's law.

After Meg Murphy's ("Big Time Rush"'s Ciara Bravo) family's house is destroyed in yet another freak accident, the family moves into their grandfather's house in Harvest Hills. In a not-so-strange case of bad luck, Meg's nemesis Ivy is also spending the summer in town. But things start to look up, kind of, when Meg meets a local boy named Brett and he casts another spell on her--a love spell. With help from her brother Charlie, Meg is more determined than ever to break the hex on her catastrophically-cursed clan.
