A moving tale of redemption that chronicles a young woman’s emotional journey out of self-loathing and spiritual denial into hope and life-changing love.
A young woman named Katie finds herself pregnant, and her hard-living mother, Daria, pressures her to get an abortion. Katie meets with a nurse in an abortion clinic and speaks to a counselor at a pregnancy resource center. She decides an abortion is her best choice. After the procedure, Katie attempts to move on with her life. She starts a career and finds herself falling in love with a Christian man. But her past continues to haunt her. Katie thought she had chosen freedom and a future; but shame and regret haunt her and keep her inner life a closed book even to the man she loves. Love, truth and grace pursue Katie, though, until her defenses finally crumble.
