Constance Webster-Black was a strong, educated, modern-day woman of the 1970s. After the death of both of her parents, she returns back home to Stone Quarry, Georgia. It's been fourteen years since she left. During those years, she married someone she didn't love. They never had children, and he was killed during the fourth year of their marriage. She's lived a celibate lifestyle all the years since then. Now her chaste Christian life is stirred when she runs smack into Otis Delaney, her old high school sweetheart. Their attraction to each other is enthralling and may prove to be a hindrance in keeping her Christian virtue. When Deacon Delaney looked down from the church platform, his eyes fell on Connie. It was true. She had moved back home, and she was more striking than he even remembered. He had to find out if their past mistakes were just that-their past mistakes. After what he did to Connie, she never spoke with him again, but Otis never stopped loving her. Now that he was divorced and she was widowed, will there be a second chance for them? He's held a flame in his heart for her for the last fourteen years. Is he hoping against hope, or was that the last time he saw love?
