    Summary: 
    "In the winter of 1982, long before she became the watercolor artist and author we know today, Susan Branch, 34-years-old and heartbroken from the sudden and unexpected end of her marriage in California, "ran away from home" to the Island of Martha's Vineyard hoping to gain perspective. It was meant to be temporary, a three-month time-out from the daily grind of being broken up and miserable, but within days of her arrival, alone and not quite in her right mind, Susan "accidentally" bought a tiny one-bedroom cottage in the woods - which is how she discovered she was moving 3,000 miles away from everyone and everything she had known and loved. Funny, observant, and touching - based on the diaries she has kept all her life, Susan Branch relates her inspirational tale of lost love and self discovery, her search for roots, purpose, and destiny with laugh-out-loud honesty. A road map for overcoming loss, following your heart, and making dreams come true, charmingly hand-lettered and watercolored in Susan's inimitable style, there are diary excerpts, recipes, and hundreds of photographs. This is book number two of a continuing story. Book one was The Fairy Tale Girl which came out October 2015, and book 3, which was written first, was A Fine Romance: Falling in Love with the English Countryside published in August 2013. Susan Branch is the American author of the Heart Of The Home lifestyle books, each of them hand-written and watercolored. They are books about the home arts of cooking, gardening, homemaking, family, best friends, entertaining and the little things that make life sweet.
