This is a different spin on the lone traveler arriving at a woman's farm. Ellen O'Brian knows she is married; her husband walked away one day and has been missing for a couple of years. This has left Ellen with sole responsibility for her farm. Jess Flint arrives at the O'Brian farm and talks her into hiring him as a handyman until she recovers from her broken leg. However, Jess is looking for something.
There are lots of twists to this story and I don't want to ruin the surprises. I'll just mention what I thought odd about the book. First, Ellen moved too much (sometimes into odd places) for having a broken leg. Second, the romance between Ellen and Jess was strained because Ellen was serious about her vows (good for her).
***SPOILER ALERT *** Ladies of the community started to shun Ellen, and then it all disappeared without sufficient explanation.
Finally, the secondary romance should have been left out or moved along at a faster pace. People their age pussy-footing around at such a snail's pace seemed strange.
