The intrepid Ralph is proud of being a maverick.  Barbara, the shy co-ed, runs when Ralph pursues her.  The real challenges begin, however, after their unlikely romance and marriage.  The adventurous Ralph jumps at the chance to move to the Dominican Republic.  Barbara reluctantly follows.  Ralph embraces the place, the people, and the music.  Barbara battles the language, the heat, and runs in terror from the two-inch cockroaches.

Twenty years after her return to the States, Barbara journeys back to the Dominican Republic, and makes a surprising discovery.
