“Her hired limo drove north along the sparkling coastline to the house she had rented on the La Jolla cliffs. After the crowded of streets of New York, she looked forward to the quiet of the coast for a few months. Most of the tourists had gone, the gold-flecked beaches would be empty except for the diehard locals and surfers. The house turned out to be everything the realtor had promised over the phone. The Spanish-style architecture gave a lazy, laid-back feel to the property. Terra cotta roof... tiles and beige stucco walls complemented the rugged coastal landscape. Lovely, well-tended gardens surrounded the house on all sides. They filled the yard with vibrant color and soft, sweet floral scents. The vanishing-edge swimming pool appeared to drop off the cliff into the ocean. Steep wooden steps descended the cliff face to the beach below if she wanted a more challenging swim in the cold waters of the Pacific. She spent her first afternoon unpacking and getting to know the house she planned to call home for the next few months.MoreLessRead More Read Less
