Mariah

Mariah: Small-town Louisiana stifled her restless spirit; like the wind, she was destined to be free. Mariah is an enigma to the people of Calloway Corners, who could never comprehend her essence: both wanton and innocent, worldly and naïve. — Ford: The maverick preacher was the one person in town who seemed to accept her, who recognized his own torment in her eyes.

Somehow, his love taught Mariah the truth she'd roamed the world to discover: the only true path to freedom is commitment.
