Lucille Bennett is pushed into adulthood after her mom decides to “take a break”…from parenting, from responsibility, from Lucille and her little sister, Wren. Left to cover for her absentee parents, Lucille thinks, “Wren and Lucille. Lucille and Wren. I will do whatever I have to. No one will pull us apart.”
Now is not the time for level-headed Lucille to fall in love. But love—messy, inconvenient love—is what she’s about to experience when she falls for Digby Jones,
They exist in two different centuries, but their love
defies time.

swept into a mystery a hundred years in the making.
As she searches for answers in the present, Cassandra discovers a truth that
puts their growing love—and Lawrence’s life—into jeopardy.

Meanwhile, several of the men on Bancree have disappeared,
