Their attraction is instant and undeniable-even though they come from completely different worlds.
As Charlotte spends more time on the island, the relationship seems meant to be. They keep meeting up, by accident at first, then on purpose.

For he alone knows her secret and accepts her completely. It seems only a miracle could bring them together. Then again, with faith and love on their side, Angel Island is just the sort of place where miracles can happen...
