When a natural disaster puts Billy Malone at Nicole Freeman's cabin in the woods, she soon finds that his offer to help her out of her predicament was simply a way of drawing her in to his web of deceit. Her loneliness and desire for a connection blinded her to the truth of how she was being drawn in to a relationship that was fraught with dishonesty. Before she realizes it, this dashingly handsome, younger-aged, charismatic charmer suddenly has her unknowingly wrapped up in his schemes. As she learns more about him and the danger that she may be in, she tries to back away, but Billy won't have it. His self-destructive and manipulative ways keep her engaged, while his seizures and strokes tug at her compassionate side. Yet an overnight stay at the hospital gives her insight into a person that she couldn't have predicted being capable of deceiving not only her but also everyone in town who ever crossed his path. Nicole barrels down a road of figuring out how to disconnect from a man whom she discovers has a violent past without putting herself further into harm's way. She is aided by a local sheriff's officer who sees the trouble she is in and takes it upon himself to bring Malone in once and for all.
