Abel Phillips made a mistake that cost him everything. He came out of it a determined and changed man with an empty life but a somewhat clean slate - something he does not take for granted. But Abe has not forgiven himself because those he perceives as the most important people in his life have not forgiven him.
Alexis Boris was raised to believe that she was a mistake, and despite the victories she encountered in life, the burdens and the pain always seemed to outweigh the good. It seemed that with every breakthrough, there was an even bigger obstacle, every little joy came with a bigger blow of sorrow. Lexi is starting to lose the will to keep fighting.
Alexis and Abel find themselves standing together in life and they are driven to open the bandages covering the wounds of their lives and clean them up for them to heal. They must learn about forgiveness, self-love and love.
