With their relationship bordering dangerously on intimacy, Sarah and Daniela take a three day hike together in the mountains. High on the flanks of Mount Santis, the two young women forge an ever closer bonding, revelling in each other's company amidst the glory of the alpine scenery. In such dreamlike surroundings, Sarah begins to think the unthinkable; to reject the forthcoming marriage arranged for her and to throw her lot in instead with the beautiful woman who has so dramatically entered her life. But the two women must return from the mountains to the cold light of reality and Sarah must face some hard decisions. Will she really consider losing the certainty of her future husband, the respect of her friends and her family in favour of a perilous lesbian liaison with Daniela? Can the passions of love triumph truly over her fears and practicalities? This, the second part of Michaela Francis' enchanting love story, burns more brightly than ever, beguiling the reader with the tale of two remarkable young women and the splendour of the alpine world in which they live.
