Sarah Munro, a partner in a growing public relations firm, enjoys a
quiet life in New Hampshire. Few know the lengths she's gone to in
pursuit of her goals. Believing she's escaped her past, Sarah longs for
the one thing that's eluded her, but a long-buried secret haunts her
dreams of love. Mark Hamilton, a little-known U.S. senator, believes
America needs a change. His friends, recognizing that his strength of
character and principled ethics are just what their country needs, have
persuaded him to seek his party's nomination for president. Now they
fear he won't be able to rise above inhibitions born out of past
personal tragedy. As their lives intersect and entwine in the heat of a
national political campaign, Mark and Sarah reach out to each other.
Mark wonders if Sarah is the one who might release him from his past
hurts. Sarah faces the possibility that to realize her greatest hope,
she may need to confront her deepest fear.
