Kristen Warner, RN is a midwife for souls. She is married to her vocation because it's easier to love the dying than to risk loving someone who might play a long-term, intimate role in her life. While attending to a patient, Kristen remembers a black tie fundraising event she must attend for work that evening. Panic sets in until she remembers she has a red dress in the back of her closet that will fit the dress code.Motorcycle enthusiast and banker, Tim Hurst, is not averse to the occasional dalliance with a pretty woman, but while entertained, he wants more than a sensuously wrapped, vacuous package. He attends a fundraiser where he is smitten by a woman in a red dress who mysteriously disappears. After the death of Tim's parents, who die on the same day, he has a health scare that sends him to Tri-County Hospice to make plans for his end-of-life care. There, he meets the woman in the red dress, whom he valiantly pursues. Kristen, having lost a loved one to a motorcycle accident, ends the relationship when she learns that Tim rides. Not wanting to lose her, Tim devises a plan to help her accept who he is and his love for motorcycles, which also includes her in his future. Will Kristen step forward into the future with the man she loves, or will she fall backward into the safety of the world she has known with few risks?
