By commencement day, Rob regrets his decision and takes Tina's graduation as an affront.

He spirits Tina off to an isolated cabin in the hills at the south end of Stoney Lake. What transpires there sends her life into a tailspin until fate intervenes, and she crosses paths with Jenny Travis. Jenny becomes Tina's protector, ally, mentor, and best friend, helping her face the unrelenting vengeance of Rob and his henchmen.
