Shenandoah summer / John Jaffe.
Alyssa, a drama teacher at an exclusive private school, is married to Darryl, a priggish, balding scientist who travels a lot. They own Finally Farm, a pastorally perfect summer retreat in the Shenandoah Valley, convenient to Limespring, a sort of low-rent Yaddo for artists and writers. Alyssa spends her summers tending her horses, directing plays and throwing lavish parties for the artistic inhabitants. Into this setting, which is what northern Virginia would be if it had been designed by an ultra-liberal Walt Disney, comes Tug, a highly successful New York sculptor. Talented, ruggedly handsome and younger than the heroine, Tug has abandoned his life in New York so he can learn to sculpt realistic horses; naturally, Alyssa offers him an equine education. Naturally, too, they fall in love at first sight, and Alyssa's marriage is undermined and her possession of the ideal farm threatened.
