After a long and stressful day of work as a bank teller, 27-year-old Maria McCory's only desire is a relaxing evening at home. But her evening--and her world--are shattered when an intruder commits a vicious and unthinkable offense, violating the essence of her womanhood...then leaving her to fight for her life. Rowan Miller, the responding paramedic, finds and empathizes with Maria, and is perplexed by his immediate emotional connection to her. Following his initial encounter, he finds himself wrestling with and questioning his sporadic thoughts of Maria, despite his two-year long yet unfulfilling interracial relationship with his girlfriend, Vickie. Can pain and lonliness unite these lost souls?
