Passionate Man Paperback - 2000
by Joanna Trollope
Archie's beloved father--for decades a widower--has begun keeping company with a most unusual woman. And everyone seems to adore her except Archie, whose feelings on the subject force him to confront issues that shed new light on his "perfect" life.
Summary
The Logans were an enchanting and admirable couple. Archie had snatched Liza from her own engagement party to someone else, wooed her, swept her off to his father in Scotland, and finally married her. Now bedded firmly into country life-three children, Archie the village doctor, Liza a teacher, everything comfortable, funny, affectionate,—they awaited the arrival of Archie's father, the brilliant Sir Andrew Logan, a widower for over thirty years.
When his city-clean Rover stopped in the drive, Sir Andrew was not alone. Beside him was a golden lady in caramel suede, a warm, witty, desirable widow whom everyone—except Archie—adored at once. Archie saw his father's mistress as the worm in the bud of his perfect life—a life that was to be wrenched apart before he and Liza could re-create their world.
First line
Old Mrs. Mossop always put her teeth in for the doctor.
From the rear cover
"A skilled artisan of nuance and insight" (Publishers Weekly), Joanna Trollope presents one of her most thoughtful and moving novels. Archie Logan had all he could ask for. His wife still drew his attention the way she did the day they met. His children were well-behaved and much loved. He enjoyed being a country doctor, and the Logan house was comfortable, if not spectacular. But now, his beloved father -- for decades a lonely widower -- has begun keeping company with an improbable woman with the even more improbable name of Marina de Breton. And everyone seems to adore her...except Archie. He believes that she's the one wrinkle in his happiness. But he is about to learn that under the smooth surface of his life, there are some issues in desperate need of ironing out...
