A chance encounter brings together two extraordinary people.
It is 1973, and Vietnam fighter pilot Major Russell T. Jefferson is determined never to fly again. But even his new post - a staff job at the embassy in London - cannot dispel his demons.
Ava Gardner, Hollywood legend with a glamorous, scandalous past, is also in London taking sanctuary from her demons.
While walking the streets of London, fate intervenes when Ava crosses Russ's path. He recognises her instantly as the woman he fell in love with as a twelve-year-old in North Carolina. A friendship grows and, for Russ, friendship soon blossoms into something more. Something for which he's willing to give up everything. But can two people from such very different worlds make a life together?
As Russ and Ava are forced to confront the past and look into the future, they must also decide where they truly belong.
