When Rosalie Winthrop, an earl's daughter, writes letters to her future husband, she doesn't expect him to be a penniless orphan. *** Sheltered by her father, Lord Samuel Winthrop, in Grenledge Manor all her life, twelve-year-old Rosalie longs to travel the world or at least go to London more than once a year. But when she finally leaves England for a trip to colonial Hong Kong with her father, she meets and befriends Maximilian Walker, a street urchin who's on the run from a troubled past. The two become fast friends, but they are torn away from each other by cruel fate. Soon, they learn that more than an ocean voyage has drawn them together--it's also their intertwined family histories. Neither of their backgrounds is what they appear. Will Rosalie ever meet Maximilian again--or her future husband? And what happens if the two are one and the same?

[Book 1 of Greenhill-Sinclair Series] Set in 1818, in London, during the regency era. Violet Greenhill, has always been the most admired woman in London. She is called breathtakingly beautiful, and is known for her wit and quick ways. She keeps getting a lot of attention and marriage proposals, but one sudden day, she gets a letter from an unknown person, and when those letters become regular, Violet cannot help but fall in love. Simon Siddell, Earl of Watford, had turned into a quiet man, who never indulged in conversations, and wasn't loved much by London due to his 'dark personality'. But, he was a silent spectator, or more of a silent lover, who watched Miss Violet from afar, dancing and chatting lovingly with others. He loved her deeply, but feared to talk to her because of his one daunting secret that had haunted him for years. But, when his desperation grew uncontrollable, he started sending her letters as anonymous to fulfill his one desire, that he'd kept close to his soul for years.
