A love that bridges the divide between centuries.

1911, Cornwall. The year has been marked by a scandal during a midsummer costume ball. Arriving from America, spirited Viola Arthur is eager to spend some long-awaited time with her dear sister.

But before the day is over, an encounter with the insufferable Laurie Teague will have consequences that will affect the lives of those yet to come . . .

Present day. When Tegan Burton arrives at Pencradoc House on the edge of Bodmin Moor, the first thing she does is drop her well-travelled suitcase and take in the grand old building.

Inhabited by the Pencradoc family, who have lived and loved behind its walls for generations, the ancestral home is still steeped in stories waiting to be discovered.

Tegan is captivated by a mystery surrounding a young woman from over a century past. She works with the tall, dark and moody Ryan to unravel long-forgotten secrets and begins to feel a powerful bond to the house that she doesn't understand.

But echoes of love and loss soon come to light, and Tegan must navigate a path between the past and the present, facing choices that could alter her future — and that of Pencradoc — forever.
