In the face of a storm, a father's love is the most powerful force. With Hurricane Florence rapidly approaching the North Carolina coastline, all Niles North can think about is his five-year-old son Riley and how he wished he bent the law when he had the chance to evacuate him. Now, instead of being safe in Hickory with his dad, Riley is with Niles's ex-wife Eden, who's decided to ride out the storm at home with her drummer friend. Desperate to get back to his son as the stormwaters rise, Niles begs Reese, an attractive police detective and rescue worker, to drive him back to New Bern. Refusing to help Niles seems nearly impossible for Reese who quickly realizes she's in deeper than she should be-both professionally and emotionally-especially since she's drawn to almost everything about him. As the two undertake a perilous journey into the eye of the storm, Niles's worst fears come true, setting in motion a series of events that will change both of their lives forever.
