Summary
When Germain--a shy but handsome widower--is sent by his father-in-law to find himself a wife, he sets out on his journey with a heavy heart. The prospective spouse is said to be rich, with land and a tidy dowry. But Germain fears for the fate of his three angelic children--and for the state of his own bruised heart. Everything changes during his voyage--through a dark wood and around a haunted marsh--when Germain falls passionately in love with an impoverished shepherdess. Should he follow his heart, and woo the girl he now loves? Or please his family by marrying a rich but disdainful widow?
