In the depths of the Great Depression, Ellie suffers another crash-that of her marriage. She's left struggling to restore her shattered life, feeling as damaged as the stained-glass panels she refurbishes for Chicago's historic structures. While visiting her aunt in Marietta, Ohio, a charming river town, Ellie encounters towboat captain Wyatt and feels a searing attraction to him. But thanks to past and subsequent wounds, her attempts at opening herself to love seem futile. Her hope for love and her determination to find the place she belongs are further complicated by her tendency to make impulsive decisions. In her journey, Ellie draws on an unrealized level of courage and learns she must identify her brightest passions in charting her course.
