Our story starts a hundred years before women got the vote, a time when they were used in trades and as property. Lady Florence Hallwood was expected to be married within the first year that she was deemed mature enough. Her grace is astounding; her beauty could only be matched to a magical princess of a faraway land. She should have suitors lining up for miles and miles, but the thing about Florence was she had no intention of marrying someone her parents approved. She was fascinated by the son of a stable owner whose desires were on his art. Will Florence shut herself from all men? Or will she eventually gain the attraction she so desires? Or will she chase someone else to appease her family?
