Ruth Thorne arrives by rickety carriage in a quiet hill village to keep her aunt’s house for the summer, and finds instructions to light a lamp in the window every night. Across the way lives Miss Ainslie, a gentle lady in lavender and lace whose long-buried story Ruth slowly uncovers, while a newspaperman and the red-haired driver Joe add their own comedy and courtship.
A gentle, nostalgic love story that was among Myrtle Reed’s most popular books, ideal for readers of quiet small-town romance. Download the free EPUB.
