Suddenly the social whirlwind Evelyn had longed for seemed lifeless in comparison. Something new and powerful was beginning to stir deep within her. Yet Maurice was a doctor with a mission, soon bound for China. Would she find the faith and courage within herself to be worthy of his love--before he left her life forever?
