Great short story about two people lost in the heat of the moment. One man's choice to do things right regardless of what anybody has to say. These are characters that you can easily love.

A wonderful love story. I never put the book aside but read it from beginning to end. Marilee had her dreams fulfilled when Justine showed up out of the blue.
