For Linn, a young lady coming of age, other harsh realities await for which no preparation seems adequate. Falling in love only to be casually rejected is humiliation enough. But when her love is spurned once again this time through the
callousness of a man who supposedly lives by Christian principles-Linn's longing for Love turns to heartache. Where will she find the strength to ever Love and trust again?
