## Snapshot

A young woman whose path crosses John Lenox's in Homeville, stirring the kind of quiet romantic possibility that reshapes his sense of what he wants.

## Who they are

Miss Blake enters John's orbit as he settles into Homeville life, and her presence gradually turns his attention from city ambitions toward something more personal. Their developing connection gives the novel a romantic thread that runs alongside David's comic machinations and business dealings.
