Synopsis by Hal Erickson
In this delightfully lachrymose Barbara Taylor Bradford confection, Maggie Sorrell (Victoria Principal) moves to a different town after she is dumped by her cheating husband. Within what seems to be a few minutes, Maggie has carved out a new career for herself as an immensely successful interior designer. She then meets Jake Cantrell (Adrian Pasdar), a much-younger man who, unbeknownst to Maggie, has likewise been abandoned--but not divorced--by a faithless spouse. Beyond the expected May-December complications, the plot also manages to incorporate a car accident, a fatal illness, and a side trip to Scotland (Well, why not Scotland?). Barbara Taylor Bradford's Love In Another Town originally aired October 19, 1997 by CBS.
