Two men, one a professional athlete, and the other a humble man who hears the voice of an angel, love the same woman. All his life, Joseph Nicholson has heard the words "turn around" spoken from behind him in a deep baritone voice. When Joseph turns, he is faced with someone struggling and in need of a rescue. From a drowning boy, to a kidnapped child, or whatever the angel requires, Joseph bravely delivers. As part of a close circle of friends that began in early childhood, Joseph claims the heart of beautiful Michelle first. In a tragic story of unrequited love, the other man is left lost and alone as he is forced to watch the woman he loves marry his best friend. Each man is brought to the very limits of what sacrificial love can endure. And from the ashes of tragedy, a new love is born.
