A year after learning of a son's existence, Country music legend, Ethan Jacobs returns to Jasper Falls, a place of bitter memories, to help the his twelve-year-old autistic child, given up for adoption at birth. Orphaned after the death of his adoptive parents, the boy is at risk of institutionalization due to probation violations and alleged inadequate guardianship of his current caregiver, an older, adoptive sister. In view of his son's delicate emotional state, the court advises Ethan to keep his relationship to Gib secret for now.



As far as Jasper Falls knows, Ethan is in town to perform a Christmas benefit, although he longs to tell the world his current hit single, A Christmas Prayer, was inspired by a son he has yet to meet. Ethan's intent was to rescue Gib. Instead, his presence seems to complicate the child's life even more. Does God have a different plan for Gib no one has considered?
