In this Lifetime Original Movie, Trachtenberg portrays Carrie Beal, a young woman torn between her loyalty to a fading love and seeking out her innermost hopes and dreams. "She's going through a transformation in life," says Trachtenberg. "She's got problems and isn't perfect. It's easy to relate to her and what she's going through."

Will Estes (Mike)

Like co-star Michelle Trachtenberg, the twentysomething actor broke into show business early, starting at age 10. He's taken on a whole gamut of roles but is most recognized as J.J. Pryor on NBC's hit family drama "American Dreams" and his portrayal as a World War II seaman in the adventure film "U-571," opposite Matthew McConaughey and Jon Bon Jovi. Next up, Estes will appear in the highly anticipated FOX show "Reunion."

In this Lifetime Original Movie, Estes plays Mike Mayor, Carrie Beal's high school sweetheart and fiancé who is left paralyzed after a diving mishap. "He learns the important lesson that people you love can disappoint you," says Estes about his character. "When Mike accepts and comes to terms with that, he really redefines his whole take on life."

Sean Maher (Kilroy)

With his engaging screen presence, Sean Maher has become a Hollywood heartthrob. His big breakthroughs have been opposite Tom Everett Scott and Oscar® winner Jennifer Connelly in the Fox ensemble drama "The $treet" and as the final love interest for Neve Campbell on Fox's "Party of Five."
