With walls dividing the space into living room, bedroom and kitchenette, it seemed smaller than the cabin, but it was cozy. The furnishings were of rattan, and where appropriate, there were cushions in pale blue and white, with draperies to match, giving a cheerful, yet soothing effect.

Susan Walsh was an inspiration. “Good sport” was a mild expression to describe her attitude toward life; her disposition was so sunny that Leah couldn’t help but smile whenever they were together, and that was often.

Or times when she sat in the backyard, trying to work and being unable to concentrate because her mind was on Garrick. He called every few days, but the conversation was stilted, and more often than not she’d hang up the phone feeling worse than ever.
