However, their peaceful existence is threatened when a wealthy woman arrives in town and decides she wants to adopt Star and take her away from Captain January. As the story unfolds, Star and Captain January must fight to stay together and keep their family intact. Along the way, they learn important lessons about love, loyalty, and the true meaning of family.
