Alexandra Stevens, an unhappy wife, bucked traditions of the Old South where women created a beautiful home, beautiful children and were steel foundations of successful men. When a handsome stranger arrived on the scene, three lives collided head-on. Anxious to make a wealthy new acquaintance his client, Ken, abusive and domineering, compelled his exquisite wife, with her Southern charm and intelligent savvy, to entertain the man who is in fact, the handsome stranger pursuing Alexandra at every opportunity. Constantly being thrown together, Alexandra is torn between duty and honor to southern tradition, her husband, and sons or passion and true love. The delightful cast of characters merged into a passionate mix of personalities, waltzing through the story with private agendas. They collide in a fatal crescendo of lust, love, money and deceit.
