Tommy - Tomika, but she's not gonna answer to that - meets Doug when she's in seventh grade, and he's a runaway teen, living on the streets. And that's it - a conversation, burger and fries at a riverside diner, and that's all. Doug disappears into her past, a lost kid with a doubtful future, alone and vulnerable.

And Tommy grows up, moves on. Until the day her place of work almost burns down, and one of the fire officers looks strangely familiar. Strange, and wild, and very familiar...

It's a happy ever after. Until full moon, at least.
