After abruptly calling off her arranged engagement to a wealthy but cruel London banker, Clara Whitlow is sent away in disgrace by her parents. To avoid scandal, they send her north to Birmingham to live with her aunt and uncle, who promise to "keep her in line."
Clara expects a dull exile-grey streets, strict manners, isolation. Instead, she meets Ada Shelby, a young fiercely loyal woman with a rebellious soul. Clara and Ada become unexpected best friends, despite coming from completely different worlds.
Soon Clara meets Thomas Shelby. Ada's older brother and falls for him almost instantly.
"Stay away from the Shelbys. Especially Thomas Shelby."
But warnings come too late.

Eleanor Whitmore came to Small Heath to escape the war-the memories, the screams, the blood she couldn't wash from her hands. She wanted quiet. She wanted to disappear. But then she caught the attention of the Shelby brothers. Thomas Shelby-calculated, cold, untouchable-found himself softening in ways he never thought possible. And John Shelby-the charming, reckless one-couldn't understand why the girl felt so familiar, or why he couldn't stay away. Two brothers. One woman. And as their lives began to unravel, Eleanor realized too late the chaos her presence had brought. She never meant to come between them. So she ran. But leaving the Shelbys was never going to be simple-not when she was the first and only thing that ever made Thomas feel... and John break.
