A chance meeting on a train - a hopeless mutual attraction or a journey of destiny? When research chemist Hamish Britton boards his train to London, little does he expect to be instantly smitten by a fellow passenger. Nor does the beautiful hotel manager, Geraldine Melbury, sitting opposite him, anticipate similar.. As the train arrives at Euston station, Hamish's attempt to ask Geraldine if she would like to meet him again is scuppered by the sudden appearance of his work colleague. It seems all is lost. Hamish doesn't even know Geraldine's name, and Geraldine only knows Hamish's first name having overheard it from his colleague. How can they ever find each other? For the next two months, Geraldine and Hamish think constantly of their encounter on the train. Against all odds, their paths cross again when a work conference brings Hamish to stay at the hotel where Geraldine works. The pair are delighted to see each other and go on a date. Their attraction deepens, but they both have partners and decide they must end their existing relationships to be together. Meanwhile, in Yorkshire, Geraldine's parents are distressed by a long-standing battle with their obstinate neighbour. Geraldine visits them one weekend while Hamish goes to see his mother. What amazing coincidence will unfold next?
