Mircle is a sixteen year old girl who lives with her mom and younger brother in Florida. Separated from her family who lives in Kentucky, she doesn't get to see any of her little cousins. When the news spreads to Florida about her Aunt Sydney dying from a heroin overdose, devastation hits her hard. What hits her harder is the conversation that her Aunt had had with her before she past, that she wanted Mircle to be the godmother. With no help from her mother, she takes the young boy in and tries to raise him as her own.
