Winter Sparrow

Mary is a talented young artist all-too-familiar with change. A complicated, distant relationship with her father and a string of bad experiences have left her heart broken and her mind splintered. So finding real love always fit more in the realm of fantasy than reality. Until now. Something’s different about her fiancé Joshua Clay, a charming and successful architect who has recently inherited his father’s abandoned countryside mansion. Joshua’s lofty dreams of leaving the city she’s come to know behind in order to relocate to a rundown estate lost in the woods conflict with Mary’s idea of happily ever after. But a garden at the center of the estate, seemingly untouched by time and decay, compels her to trade her fear and doubt for a chance to begin again.

As the seasons change, and the couple suffer an impossible loss, one question plays on repeat: has she made a mistake? Restoring the mansion consumes Joshua’s every moment, while Mary returns to the familiar escapes of her youth.
