Maggie Zimmerman can sing like few others. But, her extraordinary singing voice brings both applause and devastation into her young life. After the tragic death of her little brother - a death Maggie causes - Maggie forsakes her dreams of the stage and withdraws from the world. Maggie's parents, fearing they will lose their daughter as well, set a risky plan in motion that will force her back to the very ambition she vowed to forsake. And while powerful people throw open doors for Maggie's singing career, Maggie fights and resists and drags her feet. She cannot shake the fear that she will simply repeat the mistakes of her past if she returns to the stage. Soon Maggie strikes up a friendship with Chad Kennely, the only person who doesn't have a vested interest in her success. After realizing they're both guarding secrets from their pasts, their friendship borders on something more, but as Chad quickly makes a one-eighty and confronts his mistakes, Maggie lags behind. Even though Maggie has witnessed a change in Chad, she's still not certain God can forgive her for what she's done.

The third book in the Cadence Series finds Maggie Zimmerman facing a dilemma. Her growing success as a vocalist is putting her relationship with Chad Kennely in jeopardy. Unable, and unwilling, to choose between career and love life, she gets engaged, and then marries, despite the insistence of her manager, Milt Norino that she remain untangled in relationship. She simply doesn't inform Milt of her marriage. For a time, Maggie manages to continue to meet Milt's stringent demands, while concealing her marriage. The more success Maggie's enjoys, the more difficult it becomes to inform the Norinos that she is a married woman. When Lilly, Milt's wife, finally learns of Maggie's deception, Maggie finds herself without a manager or agent, without a future as a singer, without a vocal coach, and without direction. As Maggie's plans and dreams fall increasingly by the wayside, even Chad struggles to feel confident in God's plan.
