Rose Carpenter, Lady's Maid to Lady Sybil Crawley, never expected her past to collide with her present. When a new heir arrives at Downton Abbey, Rose is shocked to discover it's Matthew Crawley-the boy she grew up with, the one whose heart she broke when she refused his proposal. Now, as Matthew takes his place among the Crawleys upstairs, Rose must navigate the whispers below stairs and the piercing eyes of the family above. How will both worlds react when they learn one of Downton's servants was once the great heir's first love? Pairing: Matthew Crawley x Rose Carpenter (OC) Disclaimer: I do not own Downton Abbey or its characters; only Rose Carpenter and any other original characters belong to me.
