A letter owned by her deceased mother is about to change Brook Eden's life. Believing herself to be a product of an illicit affair between her opera star mother and a prince who denied her existence, Brook has always felt like an outsider. Her childhood friend Justin investigates the missive's allegations and returns with astonishing news. Brook is a baroness, heiress to an estate in Yorkshire. Her sudden reappearance unnerves those who know the secrets of her birth, and Brook is kidnapped because she may possess a treasure that was sent to her mother. Justin and Brook, whose friendship had developed into something deeper, may not have the chance to express their love.
VERDICT Set in 1910, White's (Circle of Spies) historical series debut provides all the romance and intrigue that her fans have come to love. Enchanting characters and romantic intensity create the perfect mood for this fresh twist on the Cinderella story. The Edwardian period depicted is certain to draw in Downton Abbey fans.
