As Lord Adam Beresford left Ashwood, Hertfordshire for the training and education of a gentleman, he promised to return and marry his childhood best friend, and the only girl he could see himself marrying, Grace Denham. Neither of them foresaw that it would be twelve years until they would meet again. A lot has changed in that time, and their lives are vastly different. Adam became a gentleman, and everything that the heir to a Dukedom ought to be. Grace remained in Ashwood and became a housemaid to support her family. But as their lives intertwine once more, their childhood promise bubbles to the surface, throwing their lives, the lives of their families, and the village of Ashwood into chaos.

"You and Becca should come to our party tonight." One of them says. Brittany turns to face Becca and I and asks, "Wanna go?" "Just to clarify, only you and Becca are invited." The guy beside Aaron says. "Sorry Aria, only Becca and I are invited..." Brittany says, faking sympathy. "It's okay. I have something to do after school anyway." I say, faking a smile. <~~~~~~~~~~> If you're the person the sidewalk can't fit when you're friends are walking, the third wheeler in a friendship, or the person who always gets left out in plans, you might relate to this book! This book uses some Tagalog, but I translate it beside the sentence! I use Google and my parents on the translation since I'm not perfectly fluent! :P ~Published on October 1, 2019~ ~Completed on January 12, 2020~
