About This Book

A stranger came to town and stole her heart. Sue Pringle has never met anyone like John Darnay before. A painter who roams the countryside with brush in hand, Darnay is so absorbed in his art that he can barely remember to feed himself -- a stark contrast to the practical shopkeepers and shepherds of her tiny village.
