In My Heart

"Dorothy leaned in, her velvety lips touching mine..."

It's the spring of 1958 and amateur guitarist/songwriter Alice Johnson feels like a stranger in her small Southern town. Everyone knows her business and is pushing her to settle down and marry like all the other young women in town. Only Alice's love of music provides an escape from the stifling expectations of family and society.

One night, Alice hears the mesmerizing voice of up-and-coming country singer Dorothy Long and is immediately entranced. Dorothy becomes Alice's muse, inspiring her to write songs for Dorothy--even though she never imagines that Dorothy will hear them.

But then she finally meets Dorothy and her life turns upside down. Soon Alice finds herself on the road, and not just sharing the stage--but sharing a hotel room--with her idol. Now what is Alice going to do with the unexpected desire that seems to consume her?
