Description: She was 37, a single, sad freelance fisheries reporter and writer living in Vancouver, on Canada's West Coast. He was 59, a widowed, heartbroken journalist and author, living in a small village on Isle Madame, Cape Breton, on Canada's East Coast. They met at a coffee shop in Vancouver on a brilliant spring morning, he on a book tour and she the reporter sent to interview him. They talked and talked -- and their lives changed forever. After 800 e-mails, countless phone calls and three letters of rejection, she agreed to start seeing him -- but she was never going to leave her beloved West Coast, her family, friends, horses and dogs. Silver Donald Cameron was, however, one "cussedly stubborn man."
