Rose and Jessica are cousins. Her father was Jessica's uncle. Jessica was born and raised poor. It was only 5 years ago, that her father, in desperation to get out of debt, like Rose's late father, because they made debt together, begged a wealthy man named James Burke to marry her. He was reluctant, considering he was rich and had a reputation to uphold but seeing her beauty, he believed she was a diamond in the ruff. She didn't like the way he looked at her....he looked at her like a trophy, not a wife.... she has been in Southampton, England all her life...but now that she is engaged to this man, he wishes to make his business grow, in America. He puts her in the latest fashion, buys her the finest jewelry and gets her whatever she wants, and yet she only have one desire...to be free. Luckily, even though she hates him for selling her to this man, James allows her father to stay around. James gave her father a job at his car business. So being poor is a distant memory... but Jess would rather be poor and free then have to live in these endless parades of parties and stupidity....will this irrelevance ever end? She didn't realize how alive She could truly feel until she met Thomas Ryan..Tommy..he lit a fire in her that could never be put out..she met him there on that day...on the unsinkable..on The Titanic.
