During high school, Dodie's cousin, Timmy, moves to their small town. Soon Cathy and Timmy discover they have a lot in common. They each have big dreams. His is to play professional baseball. Hers is to become a doctor. The tumultuous '60s take away Cathy's dreams, Timmy, and her faith and leave her and Dodie sharing a dark secret. It will take thirty years, a tragic accident to Dodie, a loving husband, and the right person driving Timmy's car before Cathy can forgive herself and accept the unconditional love of Christ.
