Publisher's Summary

Deirdre Reid and Hartley (Lee) Tate feel an immediate attraction when they meet at the office where they will work together and fall in love. There is only one problem: They are married to others, and Lee has four daughters to whom he is devoted.

For 15 months, Deirdre and Lee carry on a passionate affair. Then Lee’s wife is offered a big promotion across the country. With his heart breaking, Lee leaves Deirdre in San Francisco and moves east with his family so his wife can advance her high-powered career. Soon after, unforeseen circumstances have Deirdre second-guessing her insistence on a clean break. She resists every impulse to fly to Lee’s side, but on the first anniversary of their parting, Deirdre grows increasingly regretful and melancholy. Then she receives a surprising Christmas present that sets in motion a 38-year ritual that, against all odds, keeps alive the love she shared with Lee.
