Jessica Stone grew up in the South Bronx to an alcoholic mother and an abusive father. Determined to overcome her dysfunctional childhood, and the poverty she was born into, Jessica became a successful and wealthy real estate agent with an apartment in Manhattan. At thirty-two years old she has it all. The large apartment, the expensive sports car, and money in the bank. But, despite her continuing achievements, there is something missing in her life.
Nothing can fill the hole in her heart or the void in her soul. Known by her colleagues at work as being a loner and "the Ice Queen," Jessica longs to find some kind of happiness, but it constantly eludes her. Meeting Ryan Steele, a successful investment banker, appears to bring a small glimpse of joy and a promise of romance, but Ryan too is bogged down with his own demons.
Then, a chance encounter with a mystery woman and her friends, changes Jessica's life forever. But will Ryan accept Jessica now that God has transformed her? Or will Jessica have to make a choice between the new life she has found, or her old life with Ryan?
