The year is 1911. And at The Manor, nothing is as it seems... Beautiful, wealthy and sheltered, Lady Charlotte Edmonds feels suffocated by the strictures of upper-crust society. She longs to see the world beyond The Manor, to seek out high adventure. And most of all, romance. Fiery, hard-working and clever, Janie Seward knows she can be more than just a kitchen maid. But she isn't sure she possesses the courage or the means to break free and follow her passions. Both Charlotte and Janie are ready for change. As their paths overlap in the gilded hallways and dark corridors of The Manor, rules are broken and secrets are revealed. Secrets that will alter the course of their lives ... forever.
