Between the Lines

Psychiatrist Tonya Preston finds it easier to attend to her patients than to examine the expectations governing her own life. Her father's opinions carry considerable weight, and emotional distance helps keep disagreement contained. Rookie police officer Haley Jordan enters that carefully managed world with an ease Tonya does not share. Haley's affection, friendships and irreverence offer a model of living that is as attractive as the woman herself. As their relationship develops, however, work does not remain separate from private life. A difficult police case joins family pressure in testing their connection. The two women must decide how to protect something new while facing demands that neither can resolve through attraction alone.
