One Hundred Proposals

Despite, or perhaps because of her own romantic entanglements with a married man... In 1960, Jennifer wakes up in hospital after a car accident.

And then, when she returns home, she uncovers a hidden letter, and begins to remember the lover she was willing to risk everything for.
