This story follows two women from differing backgrounds. One woman, Jude, was born and raised in St. Augustine, working on the plantation of a wealthy businessman, whose son has eyes for her. The other is the younger Ethel Raymond, born into wealth, who spent her first years in St. Augustine, the ancestral home of her Spanish father's people and her Greek mother's people. When Ethel returns to the city, the two women meet again and discover the long-buried connection they share, while assisting each other to find true love.
No identifiable location in St. Augustine is mentioned. Jude lived on a plantation near St. Augustine that had been in a Spanish family since the 17th century.
