Description

“If it had not rained on a certain May morning, Valancy Stirling’s whole life would have been entirely different. . .”

One day, Valancy Stirling, a quiet, shy old maid, decides to stop listening to her nosy, small-minded relatives and start doing exactly as she pleases. Over the next year, Valancy’s choices will transform her life, outrage her family, confuse the entire town of Deerwood—and bring her into close contact with the mischievous, mysterious, violet-eyed Barney Snaith.

This is a heartwarming romance with a bold, contemporary message—a life spent appeasing other people is a wasted one—from the beloved author of the Anne of Green Gables series.

About the author

Lucy Maud Montgomery had her first poem published at the age of 15 and after completing college she worked for a short time as a journalist before becoming a teacher. In 1908 Anne of Green Gables was published to huge acclaim with Anne of Avonlea coming soon after. Many successful novels followed but by late 1930s, due to personal troubles, illness and depression, she stopped writing. Lucy Maud Montgomery died in 1942 and was buried on her beloved Prince Edward Island.
