With her mom rarely ever being around and working at a diner with a petty boss who would do anything to get on her, she is ready to move on with her life. Until one day, when her car won't start, and it's impossible for her to arrive to work in the midst of a brewing lightning storm, she is struck unconscious.

Or will she allow love to conquer all? {Heads Up: Story will be divided into three parts}
