Meeting at university, it seemed as though they had the world at their feet when Daniel and Annabel fell in love. Both ambitious and ready to take on the world neither was prepared for the way they were torn apart by forces greater than themselves. Years later, they bump into each other and realise the flame of love has not been totally extinguished. Now a successful, rising politician, Daniel breaks away from a loveless marriage and pursues Annabel once more, desperate to prove himself to her. Finally, permitting herself to allow him back into her heart, Annabel embraces Daniel's love and looks forward to finding her true love at last. However, the rocky path of their lives once more threatens to destroy them both as someone else's plans backfire and they struggle to remain strong together.
