“Perhaps there was no other purpose in loving than…to love. To feel and share joy. And perhaps there was no other purpose to art than to create beauty. But it had been a long time since he had loved for the sake of love, or created art for its own sake.”
When Jeannie Carson was a young college student, she spent a year in Paris and fell deeply in love with Pierre Delacroix, a struggling young artist. But Pierre’s passion was his art, and when Jeannie returned to Loving’s Forge, she tried to forget what had happened in Paris, and married her high school sweetheart.
Decades later, now widowed, Jeannie returns to Paris for a visit. A long forgotten painting in a gallery leads her back to Pierre, and a terrible accident forces her to prolong her stay in Paris. Pierre offers to take care of her until she can travel, and the old feelings resurface.
But bringing Pierre back into her life will force Jeannie to reveal a secret she had thought long buried – a secret that threatens to tear her family apart.
