Susan Gloss

The beautiful cover of this new novel by Susan Gloss is what attracted me to it initially (covers matter!), and the storyline was also intriguing. A woman who is mourning the loss of the life she hoped to have finds an unexpected new purpose as the director of an artists' colony. When Nell Parker finally accepts that her infertility treatments are not going to work, and recognizes that the debt she has accrued on those treatments (which she has hidden from her husband) needs to be paid off, she takes a job as the director of Mansion Hills Artists' Colony. The job distracts her from her sorrow and also introduces her to a variety of interesting artists who have come to stay at the colony. The well-developed and quirky characters and the satisfying resolution of the story are what pleased me as a reader.
