On the road to recovery he meets his last therapist, Melanie. He loves Melanie and can’t understand why they can’t be together. Rolland works hard to learn the skills he needs and the way to win Melanie. As he discovers his true identity and his past deeds, he must convince Melanie to take a second chance at love.
