But when she hears a recording of a Dvorak violin concerto, Abby becomes determined to one day perform the piece in the concert halls. Suddenly, music is everything and not even her blossoming relationship with Justin can pull her Abby away from her dreams.

Their passionate relationship has her questioning everything she thought she ever wanted. Abby realises that to face the future, she must first confront the past, uncovering some uncomfortable truths about herself, her family and the passion that has shaped her life.
