Because she promised, Felicia Graham reluctantly takes the 68-day cruise around South America her late husband bought her. Her dream of the close knit family she’s never experienced died with him. At 35 she’s young enough to marry again and have children but she’d have to take a chance on getting hurt.

As she boards, she meets Ramon Rich, who manages the chic Grille on the ship. Rejected by his college sweetheart as defective, he hides the secret of his sterility behind the façade of a love-‘em-and-leave-‘em guy. He wants a family, too, but thinks it’s not in his future.

But love finds a way for them both to achieve their dreams.
