Ever since her beloved husband Jack, a stockbroker with Cantor-Fitzgerald, died in the North Tower of the World Trade Center on Nine-Eleven, Rusty Jackson Nale has led a hollow existence, deprived of love and companionship. And now in 2008 she faces her own mortality as a result of her rescue and recovery work in the rubble of the Twin Towers. Coaxed into attending a college reunion by her sorority sister, Rusty reluctantly goes back to her alma mater hoping perhaps to get "lucky." At the reunion she reconnects with Frederick with whom she had liked as a freshman before a misunderstanding had ruined their friendship and prevented any chance for a more serious relationship. Seeing Frederick rekindles an ember for Rusty, but is it possible, after all these years, for Rusty to find love again?
