When her lover Dana accepts a long-term assignment on a foreign shore, physician Jackie Claymont finds her quiet life in rural Maine abruptly transformed by two newcomers, each a nurse, each interested in romance, each capable of changing Jackie's world forever.

Kind Joni's warm presence challenges Jackie to question her loyalty to far away Dana, while lusty Carin, a married woman, takes a direct approach in her quest to inspire the doctor's passion.

Jackie's private drama becomes suddenly public when Carin files a sexual harassment complaint that draws the attention of Jackie's colleagues, patients and neighbors.

Another woman would flee in shame, but Jackie Claymont does not quietly disappear. Instead, she stays to fight for her reputation, her career, and ultimately for the right to love the woman she chooses. But which one does she love?
