Can a hummingbird dream? Artist Miranda Jones thinks so.

Sensing the tiny injured bird that wings its way into her world still lives, she paints the creature's dream-garden and seems to reach into his very heart.

She reached into her own heart to create a new life for herself in Milford-Haven, the small town of undiscovered beauty on California's Central Coast, where one of her dear friends is environmentalist Samantha Hugo - a brilliant PhD twenty years her senior who gave up a son years earlier.

Though the e-book stands alone, it also introduces Book 1 of the Milford-Haven Novels, the critically acclaimed, popular series, a multi-generational saga.

Based on Purl's BBC Radio drama Milford-Haven U.S.A.
