However, a serendipitous encounter with a man at a cemetery sparks an unforeseen passion within Kelly. Deciding to keep their true identities hidden from each other, Kelly and the stranger embark on a romantic affair. Yet, Kelly's paramour is actually Randall Madison, a doctor on the verge of ending his marriage with his wife, Anne, a prominent political candidate who will stop at nothing to win custody of their daughter. In both the courtroom and the bedroom, his life will unexpectedly coincide with Kelly's. And as a buried secret from Kelly's past resurfaces, she must make a life-altering choice, as a judge and as a woman.
