Despite needing a heart transplant and against the advice of her doctor, Mary Catherine moves to Uganda and starts work at a brand new orphanage. Whatever time she has left, Mary Catherine wants to spend it helping children, especially since there will be no children of her own. The only problem is Major League Baseball player Marcus Dillinger, the man she never meant to fall in love with. Neither Marcus nor Mary Catherine's other friends, Tyler Ames and Sami Dawson, know just how serious her heart condition is. Still, Marcus is sure in the depths of his soul that something isn't right. Ultimately, his correspondence with Mary Catherine leads him on a desperate life-or-death mission to rescue her and get her to a US hospital before time runs out. Meanwhile, Sami and Tyler struggle with issues of their own.
