After her mom's fatal accident, Cassie Blake moves in with Grandmother Jane in small beach resort Chance Harbor, Washington, and gets a notably confusing welcome from five new schoolmates. Adam Conant is as helpful and (too) friendly as is his three-year girlfriend Diana Meade. Haughty Faye Chamberlain, assisted by Melissa Glaser, can't resist testing the newcomer with dangerous magic. Hunky neighbor Nick Armstrong catches her eye. Diana takes Cassie to an abandoned house where they all secretly meet as a magical Circle that can only reach its true potential if she joins (completing their generation's heritage of witchcraft, evidenced in grimoires, but which also killed several of their parents). When Adam's father, barman Ethan, tries to warn Cassie about the dangers, Diane's father Charles forcefully yanks his chain. As friendly, patient Adam starts overcoming Cassie's disbelief and reluctance, hostile Faye's abuse of power makes her reconsider everything.
