Delilah returns home from Switzerland, where she had been enrolled in a finishing school. Upon returning home, she is met at the airport by her stepfather's son, Dominic, from his previous marriage. Dominic is unaware of Delilah's budding feelings for him and treats her with careless affection that is generally accorded to the family's youngest member. Delilah suffers his indifference in the quiet, yet as time proves, he is not entirely indifferent to her, but still love is out as far as Dominic is concerned. Delilah finds it hard to comprehend her feelings towards Dominic, and even when she does, she takes time to realise it.Meanwhile, being a virile man, Dominic starts a relationship with a bewitchingly beautiful woman who is deserted by the man she loves, and on account of feeling unwanted and lonely, seeks the company of other men, one of them being Dominic, who, possessing an unusual clairvoyance correctly concludes that the woman he has befriended is a wonderful being behind the cool demeanour. Also, much later, Dominic learns something else about the woman, which unravels many of the family's carefully hidden secrets. The tide of coincidence that follows, takes everyone involved in the family by surprise, but whatever the coincidence, they do not prove unpleasant. Only Delilah is enraged by one discovery, very much concerning her, and being rebellious by temperament, she makes a firm resolution to demand reciprocation from the man she loves. But the one woman she dislikes so heartily teaches her about love and the serenity, patience and endurance that goes along with it.The invariable struggle with conflicting emotions that takes action with every individual in the story and the personality clashes that follow, provides a strong backbone for the story itself.
