Summary

Alma Winemiller is a shy, religious young woman who grew up pining for the boy next door, John Buchanan. He’s grown up to become a doctor with a penchant for sexual conquest, so when he returns to their Mississippi town to start a medical practice, their strange attraction sets them on a path of turmoil and heartbreak.
