You don't know me, nut I know about you. . . . I  can't make you live longer, I can't stop you from  hurting. But I can give you one wish, as someone  did for me.



Katie O'Roark feels  miserable, even though she knows she's incredibly  lucky to have received an anonymous gift. Still, the  money can't but her a new heart or bring her back  to her track-star days. When a donor is found with  a compatible heart, Katie undergoes transplant  surgery. While recuperating, she meets Josh Martel and  senses an immediate connection. When Katie decides  to start training to attain her dream of running  again, Josh helps her meet the difficult  challenge.



Will Katie find the strength  physically and emotionally to live to become a winner  again?
