In the cold of Avonlea's January, a labradorite necklace holds more than just a girl's heart-it holds a legacy, a childhood promise, and a secret that could shatter everything. Gilbert Blythe once swore he'd give his late mother's blue stone to "the girl he'd marry"... and Ruby Gillis has held onto that promise for years. But when she sees the necklace gleaming around Anne Shirley-Cuthbert's neck-and learns Gilbert's been sneaking into her room at night-a scandal erupts. Whispers of sex and shame spread like wildfire through the classroom... until Anne drops a bombshell that changes everything: they've been married all along. Secretly. Quietly. And the necklace was never just a gift-it was a vow.
