Between the past, the present and the future lie a forbidden romance, a forgotten fortune and a family secret in a story of betrayal, resilience and hope from bestselling author Lorna Cook.
In the heart of Cornwall, Zennor Trelenna has finally restored her family's crumbling ancestral home and united some of her scattered family members. But Trelenna House still has mysteries to reveal. When Zennor discovers an archived letter, she uncovers an intriguing story of forbidden love that once unfolded within these very walls.
Over a century earlier in New York's Gilded Age, Trelenna maid Grace Pascoe arrives heartbroken and bruised--but determined to build a new life. Against all odds, she rises from these humble beginnings to unimaginable heights, becoming a successful restaurant owner and wealthy socialite. She builds an incredible life for herself and her family, but there's a secret she's kept hidden...
As Zennor uncovers the unexpected parallels between Grace's life and her own, she realises that they've both been faced with a life-changing decision. Zennor longs to know what happened to Grace and her two daughters--and what their connections to Trelenna could mean for her, a century later.
