Summary
It should be the happiest time of Lt Col Samantha Carter’s life. She routinely explores alien worlds and is engaged to Detective Pete Shanahan the man who promised her what she craves — a normal life. But it causes friction between her and the other people in her life — especially between her and a certain general.
The friction increases when the shadowed past of Brig Gen Jack O’Neill intrudes in their lives. Ilse Lindeman might be from his past but she is all too present in the present. In the covert world they inhabit Ilse’s knowledge of the SGC and the base commander is all too unsettling for Sam.
As the tension brings change to Jack and Sam’s relationship, Sam must decide how badly she wants a normal life. When does making compromises turn into compromising who you are? Will their actions bring them closer together or drive them further apart? Their choices do not only affect their lives but also that of those closest to them.

Summary
Two years have passed and Colonel Samantha Carter has stepped down from commanding SG-1 and is devoting her genius solely to understanding and reverse-engineering alien technology in her lab at the SGC. At home, she is fulfilling the role of wife and stepmother as best as she can but doubt is creeping in: perhaps she has finally found something she is not good at?
With Daniel's return from his assignment at Atlantis Cassie is planning a welcome home party at the SGC for all his friends and coworkers on Earth. Coming face-to-face with her former commanding officer there, Sam realizes her marriage has not resolved her inappropriate feelings for him.
She also becomes aware of the fact she compromised who she is in order to obtain that elusive normal life and has distanced herself from her loved ones all this time. Understanding the consequences of her choices and how her actions have hurt them, Sam decides drastic measures are needed. Starting with rebuilding her friendship with Major General Jack O'Neill.
However, it looks like she might be too late; have the roles been reversed and is Jack the one with the normal life and a happily ever after, while she was the one craving it?
