Virginia Keile's secret dream was to have a second change at loving the tall, handsome Cornish farmer she had met - and foolishly lost - the summer she was a debutante. Life had taught her a great deal in twenty-seven years - about marrying a titled bachelor picked out by her mother, about a lonely marriage that ended in her husband's accidental death, about nearly losing her two children to her husband's mother and bossy Nanny. Now she had come back to picturesque Cornwall to rent a battered seaside cottage for her children and herself - and to discover if this time she could fill an empty house with love.
