β¦ Synopsis
Pediatrician Wes Gordon will do just about anything to escape his grief. When opportunity knocks, he signs on to work at a hospital in a tent camp in Haiti. One night while returning to his quarters, he comes across a gang of kids attempting to set fire to an underage rentboy and intervenes, taking the injured RenΓ© under his wing. At the hospital, diplomat Anthony Crowley tells Wes that the kids involved in the attack are from prominent families and trying to hold them responsible will cause a firestorm.
In spite of the official position Anthony must take, Wesβs compassion captures his attention. Anthony pursues him, and they grow closer during the stolen moments between Anthonyβs assignments, escaping earthquake destruction for glimpses of Caribbean paradise. When Wes realizes the only way to save RenΓ© is to adopt him, Anthony is supportive, but time is running out: Wes must leave the country, and Anthony is called out on a dangerous secret mission. Now Wes must face adopting a boy from Haiti who has no papers without the support of the one person heβs come to rely on most and may never see again.
