In High School, Wayne Stein is an outsider. Intelligent and introvert, he does not find his way into the clique of his classmates, dominated as it is by the members of the football team. Putting up with their behavior is difficult enough; unfortunately, the girl he is in love with shares such superficial mentality. Only when she is forced to spend more time with Wayne studying for her diploma does she realize that he's actually a nice, funny guy. Things seem to look up for Wayne as she agrees to go with him to Prom Night, but disaster quickly strikes as she dies in a car accident, leaving Wayne a lonely, bitter man.

He doesn't know that the girl he so adored has been sent back to Earth as an angel. If she wants to spend eternity in her personal version of paradise, she has to make good all the wrongs she committed while alive. At first she's on the wrong track, but eventually she realizes that her mission is none other than Wayne. Will she be able to help him find new love and embrace it?
