A Summer in the Country by Willett Marcia

Marcia Willett spent her childhood dreaming of being a ballerina, but her ambitions were dashed when she outgrew the classical dimensions required at the time. She had always enjoyed reading, and a family crisis prompted her to pursue a new career as a author, which she has never regretted. She and her husband live in a beautiful, wild region of Devon, where she enjoys having her son and his small family come.
