Stephen Solaris: Imprisoned in a helpless body since birth, unable even to speak, he has an incredible ability to touch the hearts and minds of those around him with the power of his personality.
Heather Barsten: A nurse whose devotion to her patients surpasses her ability to fulfill her own needs. From Stephen she learns the importance of being true to one's heart-and she finds herself falling in love.
