Vivian Lovel, a penniless Cornish painter and model, finds herself unexpectedly responsible for a baby after rescuing it from a sinking ship. She embarks on a whirlwind adventure, encountering a charming actor, navigating the complexities of a repertory theatre, and experiencing the allure of both London and the picturesque French countryside. As Vivian juggles her budding career, a blossoming friendship with a beautiful woman, and the affections of her charming companion, she must decide where her true loyalties lie and what path she will ultimately choose. This lighthearted novel follows Vivian's journey of self-discovery as she confronts life's challenges with a spirited and optimistic outlook.
