Rosa Santori hates being told what to do, mostly because she has been forced to base her life around limitations. Now she faces a fight for survival after a car accident that has changed her plans for the future.

Laura Falifax, a psychology intern at Remington Hospital, has a lot to learn from her first assignment, but her husband resents her recent success and campaigns against it. He hopes to see her fail and remain in their sheltered life.
Kind and gentle Laura meets rebellious Rosa in a place where struggle becomes inspiration and motivation to change. Can the stern and the compassionate work together, or will life's obstacles block their opportunities to grow?
