Living in isolation while caring for her ill son and teenage daughter, she finds solace in a long-distance friendship with Bill Robinson, a Washington power broker also trapped in an empty marriage. Their bond becomes a lifeline, offering support through their shared heartache. When they agree to meet in London for a few innocent days, their friendship begins to evolve. However, a sudden accident changes everything, leaving them in a London hospital, clinging to life. As they navigate the challenges of recovery, both physically and emotionally, they must summon the strength to embrace life anew. Yet, as their relationship deepens, external pressures and another loss threaten to tear them apart, risking the chance of losing each other forever. This poignant narrative explores themes of courage in the face of loss, the strength needed to confront fears, and how the toughest choices can lead to unexpected rewards. Ultimately, it reveals that even the longest journeys can begin with a single kiss.
