Victoria "Vic" Savedge is enjoying the perfect romance with football star Charly Harrison, until she meets and embarks on a passionate love affair with Chris, a beautiful transfer student, and is forced to make a difficult choice.
Everyone on the William & Mary campus knows Victoria "Vic" Savedge. The six-foot-tall, raven-haired beauty can hardly blend into the cobblestones - especially on the arm of Charly Harrison, the school's football star and son of one of Virginia's most prominent families.
Now, at the start of her senior year, Vic's future is mapped out in detail, courtesy of her mother, R. J., and her aunt Bunny. The plan is simple: Vic will marry Charly and settle into the role of a well-respected politician's wife. Though bright and branded by a fiery streak of independence, Vic hasn't really considered any other options. Until she meets a woman named Chris.
A transfer from Vermont, Chris is new to Southern mores and attitudes. Instantly captivated by Vic's beauty and larger-than-life personality, she finds herself drawn to the entire quirky but charming Savedge family. But the young women's friendship is not your basic college-girl variety. For neither can resist their mutual attraction - an attraction that erupts into a passion that will forever change the course of both their lives.
To embrace her true sexuality and sacrifice happiness with a man whom she truly loves are the wrenching decisions that Vic must face. It is a struggle at once terrifying and exhilarating. Just when she makes up her mind she discovers that fate has its own surprising plan awaiting in the wings.
