Badly disfigured, Geoff lives alone in the woods with only his wolf as companion. It's a solitary life, but one he is comfortable with. When he discovers a fairy with an injured wing at the beginning of winter, his whole ordered world is turned upside down. But will Mauve be horrified by his rescuer's visage? Or can the fairy look beyond the scars and see into Geoff's heart?
