Winter Winds

When Jessamine Whitaker returns home to Victorian London after spending months at a secluded finishing school, she knows what is expected of her: she is to find a rich, hopefully handsome, man to settle down with in a large house. But the one secret she's managed to keep hidden for years— her love for the boy in the bookshop—goes against every value she’s been taught to hold dear. And when the rich and handsome Charles McAvoy reappears in her life, Jessamine is forced to choose between him and Thomas: between passion and propriety.
