Summer of Love: A Season of Passion
About this audiobook
The morning sun painted golden streaks across the cobblestone streets of Sainte-Marie-de-la-Mer as Isabelle Moreau stepped off the train, her heart racing with a mixture of excitement and trepidation. The small coastal town in Provence had called to her through an online gallery posting, promising a summer artist residency that would change her life. After three years of struggling to make ends meet as a painter in Paris, living in a cramped studio apartment and working part-time at a café just to afford art supplies, this opportunity felt like a lifeline thrown to a drowning woman.
The Mediterranean breeze carried the scent of lavender and sea salt, immediately soothing her frayed nerves. Isabelle adjusted the worn leather strap of her art bag and pulled her wheeled suitcase behind her, following the hand-drawn map the residency coordinator had sent her. The narrow streets wound upward toward the cliffs, lined with ancient stone houses draped in climbing roses and morning glories that seemed to burst with more color than any palette she had ever mixed.
