David pulled his jacket around him and tilted his face a bit to shield his eyes from the brightness. The dew from the grass made his shoes wet as he stepped off the road and began walking across the manicured lawn. He stopped in front of a moderate sized black marble headstone and looked up at the engraving. 'Daniel Joseph Steinman Sr.-Beloved Husband and Father.' David's eyes became blurry with tears and he felt a lump growing in his throat. He stepped closer to the headstone, reached out and gently rubbed his fingertips across the letters. "I love you." At that moment, a soft spring breeze whirled around him and he smiled...' The sudden death of his father left ten-year-old David Steinman emotionally shattered. Feeling lost and alone, he quietly faded into the background where he preferred to stay. Six years later, after hearing David sing a solo at a choir concert in the town plaza, theatrical agent Murray Ackerman shows up at David's school to talk about the music business and ultimately informs the class that he believes David has the talent to be a professional singer. The boy immediately balks at the idea, but still wonders... Could it be true? Does he even want it to be? With Murray's unwavering support, the unconditional love of his family and constant encouragement from a beautiful young dancer named Casey, David slowly overcomes his doubts and fears and emerges from the shadows to a life he never dreamed possible and a love he never thought he'd find.
