Ally is working to finish her Ph.D. in Psychology while coming to terms with the fact that her health issues are beyond her control and in need of serious and expensive medical interventions. She's eventually introduced to Dr. Spencer Erickson, a wealthy and brilliant, unorthodox young Doctor who finally offers her some answers. Dr. Erickson reminds Ally that she is more than her illness by recruiting her to be a researcher for his team. Their chemistry is undeniable and they very quickly develop a deep and sensual bond that cannot be undone, even when Ally discovers that her caregiver may be the one who needs saving.
