Her two daughters are more or less raised; her husband; while cold and standoffish; remains a dependable partner; and their family is comfortably wealthy and fairly happy. Faith's nagging need for change is stimulated further when her stepfather dies. At the funeral; as painful memories from her sad past resurface; she runs into an old friend; Brad Patterson. Brad; who shares a close bond with Faith (due to some shared grief from the past); is also trapped in an unhappy marriage. As Faith's marriage deteriorates; she begins a long-distance correspondence with Brad; and although the two assure themselves that their relationship is purely platonic; things steadily heat up between them. In the meantime; spouses; children; and other events conspire to keep them apart. But as Faith slowly begins to believe in herself and her dreams; both she and Brad find the courage to overcome these obstacles.
