Aspiring to wider horizons and impactful work, Alecia, a soft-hearted but straight-laced Jamaican-American, ventures to exotic Mozambique, in Africa, as a volunteer teacher. She has her goals all worked out, and she doesn’t plan to complicate her life.
But then, she had not bargained on meeting the irresistible Fernando Limão.
Fernando, a Portuguese businessman who has come to Mozambique to settle his late father’s estate and recharge a life gone stale despite international jet setting and a stunning woman or two, decides that Alecia is just the woman he wants... at least for now.
Against the backdrop of a vivid culture and landscape, Alecia and Fernando share profound and thrilling experiences.
Can Fernando ignite Alecia’s smoldering passions? And can Alecia finally shed her inhibitions, dance freely to the rhythm of her heart, and discover the one thing that breaks down all barriers and crosses all borders – true love?
