Pastor Josh McKay lost his young son and wife to a hit-and-run accident. He drives a truck on the same route on the lookout for the deadly driver. Instead, he finds Sarah hitchhiking.

He thinks marrying her will solve his problems; however, they’ve only just begun. Sarah wants unconditional love and she fantasizes that the baby she’s carrying will heal Josh’s heart. Meanwhile, Josh is wondering if he made a big mistake. When Sarah disappears one morning, Josh goes to his friends to mount a rescue.
