After her Aunt suggests keeping a Diary, Claire visits the Saturday village market looking for Diary supplies and maybe she's just trying to start a ritual on this day too. In addition to ink and paper, she finds a friend and a weekly destination. French markets do have everything and more.

Claire's last summer as a tour guide in the Champagne caves is drawing to a close and she's looking for a way to stay in the village through the harvest as the days tick by. Even though she's only a few credits away from graduating, Claire is in no hurry to return to New York for her final semester. Laurente's upcoming annual harvest celebration was far more than a party - it was a treasured gathering of members and friends. No one had ever declined her invitation to join - why would they? Claire wasn't going to be the first.
