Cal Newton and Allison Klein have different ambitions. Cal has a Space Planet Exploration Company competing for a contract to participate in a landing on Mars. Allison is an elementary school teacher hoping to someday become an elementary school principal in her district. Cal has gone to Fairbanks, Alaska, to return his company's test vehicle to the laboratory in Philadelphia. Following her sister's accidental death in a boating accident, Allison had gone to Anchorage, Alaska to return her sister's children to their grandparents home in West Virginia. During Allison's bus trip back home she and the children are accidently left at a rest stop on the Alaska Highway. Allison accepts a ride and is robbed of her money and she and the children are left out in the cold on the highway. She eventually gets a ride to a tavern at a crossroad down the highway. While in the tavern, Allison is molested by some filthy men. She is rescued by Cal and accepts a ride in the test vehicle. A powerful blizzard causes Cal to stop and park while waiting for the blizzard to pass. The wait for the weather to improve takes several days and during the wait Cal and Allison fall in love. With completely different backgrounds and goals in life could their feelings toward one another bring about a change in their lives?
