Amorette and her ex-boyfriend were having problems, but when men break in on Valentine’s Day looking for the money he stole, her life is suddenly in danger. Given twenty-four hours to return the money or both she and her parents pay the price, a desperate Amorette races against the clock to rescue her family.
