About this listen
Let yourself be swept away as you listen to this collection of three romantic novellas about women who fall in love as they explore the beauty of the earth. Best-selling author Marian Snowe takes you on a journey through forests and across the waves, telling the stories of courageous women who find love where they least expect it.
The Nature of Love includes these three novellas:
Two Alone: All Ivy Wilson wants is a little privacy after going through a distressing public humiliation. While on a hike deep in the woods, Ivy meets Sawyer, a gorgeous, tree-climbing adventurer...and Ivy can't resist her allure. Being out in the wilderness means they'll have plenty of privacy, but what will Ivy do when she finds out that dating Sawyer could drag her even farther into the spotlight?
Rescue Me: Elise Giordano wants an opportunity to impress Sasha, the charismatic leader of the marine animal rescue where Elise volunteers and the woman of Elise's dreams. Elise never guessed that an entangled mother humpback whale and her calf would provide that opportunity, but when the two women rush to the rescue, a love as deep as the ocean begins to surface.
Love Birds: Alexandria Dunn's quiet, boring life gets a splash of color when she discovers a love of birds and birdwatching. At her first birdwatching event, Alexandria meets Nell, a beautiful and enthusiastic tour guide. When a series of misfortunes result in Alexandria being the only participant, Nell shows her a romantic afternoon that changes both of their lives.

Story
Maya Scanlon doesn't want a fling. The former EMT's attempts at finding true love have been a self-esteem kick in the teeth, so it figures that the one person she hits it off with is looking for the opposite of "forever." Sophie Kent is charming and gorgeous, but she's got a secret: she's actually the princess of a tiny European kingdom, come to America for one last hurrah before she has to take the throne. The best she can promise is a few weeks, and that's not what Maya's heart is after. But they have too much chemistry to just walk away.

Josie Bianci was killed years ago on a train during a terrorist attack. Gone forever. It’s what her sister, Kit, an ER doctor in Santa Cruz, has always believed. Yet all it takes is a few heart-wrenching seconds to upend Kit’s world. Live coverage of a club fire in Auckland has captured the image of a woman stumbling through the smoke and debris. Her resemblance to Josie is unbelievable. And unmistakable. With it comes a flood of emotions - grief, loss, and anger - that Kit finally has a chance to put to rest: by finding the sister who’s been living a lie.
