Nothing would ever be the same Michael Anderson, a renown heart surgeon, after losing a little girl on the operating table. He blamed himself, rightfully, having stayed out the night before to indulge his exotic nightlife. A half continent away, Justin Brooks left his bride-to-be standing at the altar when he ran from the church as if it were full of vampires. Leaving his hometown behind in a fog of self-doubt, he found solace in the desert wilderness of far west Texas. When their paths cross where the desert meets the sky, a friendship was born. Together, as one day ran into another, they found peace in this mysterious land as they came to know each other. Not until they faced losing everything they had found, did both realize another destiny in Big Bend.
