Lucy Kappal can't figure out why she doesn't want
to marry her sometimes-boyfriend, Charles. After
all, he's perfect on paper: a returned missionary,
elders quorum president, a professor at BYU. Instead
of giving Charles an answer to his unexpected
marriage proposal, she boards the next flight to
London only to fall at the feet of the handsome
pilot. The encounter leaves her heart pounding in a
way it never has with Charles, and she becomes even
more smitten when she sees the pilot again at her
hotel.
Emerson James is in London to deposit the last of
his mother's ashes in Kensington Gardens. And
after a fifteen-year absence, he is attempting to
return to the Church as a way to find peace with his
mother's death. But the Church's culture feels
foreign, and he's about to give up on ever becoming
a "good Mormon" when he meets Lucy in the hotel
lobby.
Lucy and Emerson's new friendship opens their
worlds to new possibilities and leaves them wanting
more. But Lucy is torn over her feelings for Charles,
and Emerson isn't sure how committed he can be to
the Church, even knowing how important it is to
Lucy. Inevitably, the realities of life force them apart.
If given a second chance, will they have the courage
to risk everything for a once-in-a-lifetime love?
