When retired professor Peter Lanford hires her to be his part-time housekeeper, she feels she has finally found what she has long been looking for. But the joy of creating a home and befriending lonely Peter is marred by the gossip and speculation rife in the idyllic Gloucestershire village... gossip that winds its way into Peter and Sarah's lives-and into their hearts. Soon Sarah's friendship with Peter has become a village affair, and it threatens to ruin everything she holds dear. From USA Today bestselling author Kate Hewitt.
