He is a world apart from shy, reclusive Jamie Sullivan, a Baptist's daughter who carries a bible with her school books, cares for her widowed father and volunteers at the orphanage. But fate will intervene. Forced to partner up at the school dance, Landon and Jamie embark on a journey of earth-shattering love and agonising loss far beyond their years. In the months that follow, Landon discovers the true depths of the human heart, and takes a decision that is so stunning it will lead him irrevocably down the road to manhood . . .

A sense of latent threat begins to disrupt her orderly life. On the same day, an unknown patient arrives, and Claire thinks she understands the situation. However, Thomas is merely the honest finder of her bag. Claire and Thomas become lovers, even though he warns her that he is married. As their relationship develops, Claire becomes increasingly consumed by fantasies about the other woman. The story takes a surprising turn as the complexities of love and desire unfold, challenging Claire's perceptions and leading her to confront deeper truths about herself and her choices.
