Mr. Johansen, a successful businessman, connives a circus-style job fair to find a replacement for his executive assistant. Things don’t proceed well, especially when his partner chooses to step in and create trouble.

Charlotte Hunter responds to Mr. Johansen’s online advertisement. But during her interview, the business partner viciously opposes her. She struggles to stand up for her rights and beliefs as a Christian, but pays a high price, which could cost her the job.

Mr. Johansen selects a man named Matthew to escort Charlotte though the myriad of difficulties encountered during the application process. When Mr. Johansen chooses Charlotte as one of the finalists for the assistant position, his partner unleashes a whirlwind of chaos against her and two others during a training class. Charlotte’s life, along with Matthew’s, takes off in directions neither of them could have imagined.

Because of the partner’s actions, a judge subpoenas Charlotte into a trial. She can’t avoid the court’s verdict and it forces her into hiding to evade a horde of media reporters. During their seclusion, Matthew’s sordid past catches up with him and entangles Charlotte in situations he believed everyone had forgotten.

Can Charlotte extricate herself from the enmeshing web of Matthew’s childhood? Can Matthew forgive himself and others for the sins of his past?
