Alice Johns and Bridget Moore were young nuns when a forbidden spark lit between them. After being discovered, they were released from their convent and lost touch. But they never forgot their intense connection.
Twenty-five years later, they meet again, and the old spark is just as strong. Outside the convent, they couldn’t be more different from one another. Alice lives a quiet life, is active in her church, and doesn’t talk about her past as a nun. Aside from the longing she has for her first and only love, her chosen family in Oceana is everything she needs to be happy. Bridge, an outgoing sales executive whose life has expanded in the years since they were together, has come to know that life is more than her job. She has also sworn off religion. When they reunite, their passion runs deep. But when they think about the future, they worry about how different they’ve become.
For their love to survive, they must find a way to reconcile the most important passions in their lives—devotion to the church and each other.
