Elizabeth's dreams are riddled with the torment of her past: running endlessly from a raging fire chasing behind her - the same forest fire that took her father's life when she was sixteen. Ten years later, immersed in an exhausting nursing career, she convinces herself to face her pain by attempting a soul-searching trip of forgiveness through that same wilderness. With her pet rat on her shoulder, she embarks on a hunt for closure that challenges her physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Upon meeting a mysterious wounded man deep in the wilderness, Elizabeth struggles to save his life but quickly learns of threatening forces around them. As they journey and grow together, she discovers that he is no ordinary man; he's a beautiful being with an unusual secret - and despite it, she is falling in love with him.
