Tabitha Johnson is more than just shy. . .
Her stuttering and lack of self-confidence have her locked in a trap she can't escape.
Wanting to serve the Lord and show her family she can amount to something, Tabby enrolls in a class on ventriloquism. When she visits the shop of accomplished ventriloquist Seth Beyes to inquire about buying a dummy, he quickly notices her potential. With the help of Tabby's best friend, Seth begins a campaign to turn Tabby into what he thinks she should be---the perfect woman to be his wife.
But Tabby knows she will never be perfect. Will she ever let go of her shyness and use her talent to serve God? Will Seth be able to love her just as she is? Or will Tabby spend the rest of her life letting her dummy talk for two?
