Two light-hearted stories of love set in an English castle and the French countryside. The Artist's Model: Tom Laurence knew that he had it all. A successful lawyer, he is set to marry his childhood sweetheart and come into his inheritance. But new conflicts arise when he encounters the beautiful but elusive model, Elizabeth, in the months before his wedding, and he finds himself torn between duty and desire. Purple Lake: Amelia tries to escape from the bitter fragments of a relationship into the charming French countryside in search of peace. What she finds is Alain Traynard, whose tragic past has thrown him into the solitary life of an artist. But are two weeks enough to restore the vitality and passion to more than just their paintings?
