Emma Qualyes survived a tragic event that no one should endure. She's become a hermit living with her older brother, talented at a craft few young people do, quilting. Now her brother, Ben, a world-famous epidemiologist, and his fellow doctor, Wayne Meeks, are leaving for a long trip and Emma's getting a baby-sitter, even though she's seventeen. Dylan Meeks survived not only the death of his mother and disabling injuries, but estrangement from his father. He's gone through post-traumatic stress disorder to post-traumatic growth, established a new normal. He lives his life to the fullest without being careless of the gift he's been given. Yet now he is spending the summer in Arizona with a stranger-a girl no less, who is his babysitter. No sooner do Emma and Dylan meet than danger looms in the form of a phone call that threatens Ben, Wayne and even Emma's life. Who's after them? Why? Can the desert save them when man and nature attempt to kill them?

Does she stay and possibly get shot by her crazed father or run into the storm of the century, Hurricane Katrina? Marguerite Aucoin has no choice but to run!

With time, he learns her secrets, and discovers someone's trying to kill her. But's he's fallen in love with Marguerite and is determined to protect her.
