About
Love, lust, dreams, and ambition clash and intermingle in this brilliant novel.
Charity Royall is a bored, eighteen-year-old librarian living in the small town of North Dormer. Her life becomes considerably more exciting when Lucius Harney, an architect, moves to town to conduct research for a book. The two bond quickly, and find themselves falling for one another, but there is competition in the form of Annabel Balch, a wealthy socialite who has taken a shine to Lucius, and Charity's guardian, Lawyer Royall, whose feelings for Charity are more than simply protective.
