He had a calling. She was in need. The Lord works in mysterious ways.
Shortly after his engagement to the prettiest girl at Brigham Young University, God called the elders of the Church with a message for Aaron: It was time to serve as a missionary—just for the summer.
But Aaron must have been doing a really good job, because God kept calling to extend his mission.

When he knocks on the door of Ivy St. Clair, a stunning 39-year-old former model and neglected trophy wife, he is encouraged by just how eager she seems to receive the Good News.
