Spencer Hill's fondest wish has come true. Or maybe his second fondest wish. The northern Vermont town of Assisi, where Spencer is the Unitarian Universalist minister, has at last established close ties with The Forest, a Pagan community just east of town, and it's mostly due to Spencer's efforts. Certain that his greatest wish will never come true, Spencer tries to ignore it-until the man he has tried to forget shows up on the arm of someone else. For a while Spencer is distracted by a Pagan-inspired festival he's organizing and by the teenaged Kira, who-despite her parents' refusal to accept her-is "Ralph" no longer. But soon he can't avoid the questions. Will Donald stay in Vermont with Jonathan Ehrlich? Will he return to his acting career in Manhattan? Or will his love for Spencer guide him? And the real question: What would any of them give up for love?
