An uplifting story of a middle-aged woman overcoming fear and self-doubts to find adventure, love, and family.
Forced into early retirement, Bennett Hall plans for a quiet, orderly, and anonymous existence. No longer will she be burdened by her dependent but unlovable aunt, or her own misperceived rejections.
Unexpected encounters and a new job crack open her social isolation. The arrival of Joe Muir, an attractive widower, and his two adopted Ugandan children, awaken Bennett's long-ignored desires—and self-doubts.
Inspired to win Joe's love she flies to Uganda in search of the children's missing sister. To overcome the dangers and challenges she confronts, she must find the courage she has always lacked.
