In the grand halls of Downton Abbey, where tradition and aristocracy intertwine, there exists a young woman named Florence Crawley. She is the second child of Lord and Lady Grantham, a lineage steeped in history and privilege.
Florence's dark black hair cascades like a silken waterfall, echoing her mother's beauty and her older sister Mary's elegance. Her skin, though pale, carries an ethereal glow-a testament to her health and vitality. But it is her eyes that captivate all who behold them: emerald green, like rare gemstones, they seem to hold secrets whispered by the winds.
Her resemblance to her father is undeniable, yet her features possess a sharpness, a strength that sets her apart. Florence moves through the opulent rooms with grace, her presence leaving an indelible mark on those fortunate enough to witness it.
As the seasons change, so does Florence's fate. Her beauty becomes a topic of hushed conversations during society gatherings, and suitors vie for her attention. But beneath the glittering facade lies a young woman yearning for more-a life beyond the confines of tradition.
In "Florence," love, ambition, and destiny collide against the backdrop of a bygone era. Will she defy expectations and forge her own path, or will duty bind her to the legacy of Downton Abbey? Only time will reveal the secrets hidden within her emerald gaze.

Octavia Sorrell, the Countess of Kendall, had been forced into marriage by her father and brother when she was only fifteen years old. Just after her sixteenth birthday, she gave birth to twins; Charles and Olivia. Two years later, after Lord Kendall's scandalous death, and fearing the gossip it had caused her, she began to live the life of a recluse, only visiting her closest neighbours, Sir Freddie Sommerville and his wife and old school friend, Katie. However, when Charles was ten years old and woefully underprepared for the vigours of an English aristocratic education at Eton, Freddie, who was also her son's guardian persuades her to employ a tutor for her son, to prepare him for school. Captain Alexander Fallbrook, after returning a hero from the battle of Waterloo, was living the life of a libertine. His family, embarrassed by his latest exploits, decided that the best course of action was to send him far away from London. His mother, the Countess of Huntingdon, heard of a position as a tutor for a young lad in Yorkshire, far away from the temptations of town, and she encouraged him to apply for the position. When Alex arrived in Yorkshire, he was somewhat taken by the beautiful young Countess and decided that his time in the country may not be as dull as he first expected. However, as he became better acquainted with the young widow, he recognised a fellow soul in torment. Can Alex overcome four years of guilt, or will he be unable to let go of the past to embrace his future?
