Mike Edwards is an ex-professional rugby league player who falls in love with Karen, a divorced, single mother with three children. Ben, her eldest son leads a gang of hoodies in a neighbourhood where drugs and violence threaten to destroy their lives. With Mike's help, Karen tries to maintain standards but Mike takes on more than he realises when Ben gets invoved with a national drug dealing syndicate and an older woman. Other lives are caught up in anti-social behaviour with heartbreak and tragedy along the way. However, Mike's love for Karen and her innate sense of what is right and what is wrong triumph in the end.
