Summary: Single mother unwittingly linked to a murder scheme is kidnapped in attempt to silence her. College student, Katie MacKenzie, is summoned to an English Professor's office, to review a paper she submitted. His praise blinds her to his devious intention. She naively drinks from the glass he offers. Drugged and raped, she flees, disgraced and disillusioned. Warned to be silent with the words, "no one will believe you." Pregnant, she forfeits her dream of becoming a reporter. Plans to give the baby to a childless couple are foiled when they are brutally murdered. Feeling betrayed by men and fate, believing love and happiness to be illusive, Katie begrudgingly accepts her role of a single mom. She moves to a "safe" rural area to raise her son. But crime and greed follow her. Kidnapped for acting as a responsible citizen, she gradually acknowledges the many blessings already present in her life.
