description: 1969 is coming to a close. Rob Grant begins to suspect that his year-long romance with Luisa is also nearing an end. If his instincts are right, it would mean that his search for an enduring relationship and a surrogate mother for his two teenage sons would continue. Twice divorced, it doesn't help that he's very cautious when it comes to making another long-term commitment. Then late in December, it's by sheer chance that Rob meets a former sweetheart while they're both on business trips to Australia. Their love affair is reborn, and it offers him the prospect of a bright future with a sweet, lovable woman. His boys remember her well and they share his hopes. Unfortunately, the path ahead is anything but smooth. His younger son, Greg, gets into drugs once again, and then a life threatening health issue arises. Adding to his woe, Rob also faces the possibility that the Wall Street company he works for may downsize and that his management job could be eliminated. But in the background is Kim, a new woman in his life. She becomes a valued friend who generously offers Rob her support and her love. The saga continues, and what unfolds is a sensitive, real-life picture of a man who, despite setbacks and a broken heart, persists in his quest for happiness.
