At eighteen, Iris has spent her whole life in a convent with a fixed intention to take the veil. Yet, her Mother Superior believes it wise for her to experience the world first. She accepts a temporary position as governess for the young son of the Greek businessman Zonar Mavrakis. While in the Mavrakis household Iris learns dramatically what life outside the convent walls can offer. The powerful charm of Zonar, who is not easily persuaded by other suitors—like Iris’s glamorous school friend Colette—forces her to confront an unexpected love that could alter the course she had always planned.
