When Frances Barrett accepts a position of housekeeper, nanny, and nurse to the Fellowes family, she believes that it will be simply a stepping stone to get over a personal tragedy. But as she cares for the ailing Helena Fellowes and her three children, she finds herself drawn into the family dynamics.

A mother lies dying of consumption, bitterness building against her husband. A father struggles with inner demons while filling his children's heads with fantasies and dreams. And three children are caught in the middle of a feud without even knowing it. All they do is listen to their father's stories and the wedge is driven deeper. 

The longer Frances stays, the more she sees of the pain behind the father's stories and the sadness and fear the mother faces, not of dying but of leaving her children with their father. What Frances had hoped would only be a few months of mind-numbing domestic work turns into a time of discovery, war, love, and tragedy.

Embrace the mystery, discover more. "I would sacrifice pieces of my flesh and still be considered selfish for not giving my bones." I spit at the annoyingly handsome man in front of me, he runs both his hands over his face into his light brown hair narrowly missing the small horns that curl out of his head before looking up at me in disappointment. "Would it be your choice whether the skin is taken off of you.. or your lowlife fathers who I saved you from?" He snickers, rage rolling off of me in waves as he smirks up at me knowing he has hit a weak spot. This man may have saved me but it is time for me to save myself and this kingdom. An infant was left by the bank of the river for the floods predicted for the following night to wash her away. Until a beautiful woman taking an evening stroll heard her cries and found her all bundled up in a black blanket and when she opened her big beautiful purple eyes the woman gasped in shock. Knowing she had found something special she took the babe and ran home to her loving husband. He immediately fell in love with the child, naming her Penelope, both watching as the child grew happily but never taking her out of the premises so no one would question them about her eyes. Until Penelopes sixteenth birthday everything was perfect, that day her mother fell ill and passed within the next fortnight after her heart couldn't handle the sickness anymore. The last thing she told her husband was, "Protect her from them, for they will come for her." Penelope heard his cries of despair ringing throughout the house almost muffled by her own, for she knew she wouldn't be able to go to her funeral, visit her grave, or even talk to her mothers friends to remember her in spirit. Months that passed turned into years and Penelopes father grew mean and cold, he tried to hold back till his breaking point reached and that would be the night where her world was turned completely upside down.
