Tabitha's life is about to get complicated.
Stuck between a quiet, predictable future filled with knitting, cats, and no surprises, or the dazzling, unpredictable world of her estranged grandmother's high-society circle, Tabitha has some tough decisions to make. Neither path seems promising, but when she finds herself reluctantly pulled into the world her mother left behind-especially with one particularly irresistible man-she has to face a bigger question: can she keep her heart safe from someone who's determined to break down all her walls?
A heartwarming, witty story about love, family, and finding your place in a world that feels a little too big for you.
