What would happen if you met again..."

Seattle librarian Julia Reynolds (Juliet Stevenson) has been planning this family vacation to Malta for some time. Taking her unadventurous husband, Jack (Daniel Stern) along, she has secretly arranged to keep a date made 25 years earlier with her first love.
Alex Belmont (Tcheky Karyo), Julia's secret French paramour keeps their date and has such strong feelings for her still that causes a riff in Julia's marriage as Jack decides to search out his own island romance.
