Seventeen-year-old Rachel is longing for a bit of normalcy. After taking a summer job away from home, she meets a good-looking Australian boy with a similar appreciation for church, family, and a more conservative lifestyle. But before she knows it, Rachel finds herself isolated, afraid, and over her head in a religion that doesn’t want to let her go.
