"Three Year Promise" is a contemporary drama and romance story centered on two solitary professionals, John Morrison and Emma, who meet by chance at a Swiss ski resort.
Plot Summary The story begins with a literal "collision course" when John, a bush pilot from Montana, and Emma, a neurologist from Boston, crash into each other while skiing at Devil's Drop. Both individuals are accustomed to spending their annual vacations in isolation to escape their high-pressure lives. Over the course of seven days, their initial hostility turns into a competitive friendship as they challenge each other on difficult slopes. However, their connection is complicated by their imminent futures: Emma is about to begin a prestigious three-year commitment with the World Health Organization (WHO) that will take her to field hospitals across four continents. Despite Emma's injury during the trip and her fear of emotional attachment, the two eventually admit their feelings for each other. The story concludes with them choosing to pursue a relationship based on "boring consistency" and "no vanishing," despite the logistical challenges of her three-year assignment.
