"An engaging, wholesome love story..." --Kirkus Reviews
Nelle Thompson lives a life of privilege during the turn-of-the-century New York City. When her parents are killed in a terrible accident, she's forced to live with her aunt's family in a small town in Connecticut, and treated as a poor relation with no financial independence. Devastated and riddled with insomnia, Nelle's health begins a downward spiral. When a locked part of her heart blossoms around her cousin's fianc Mathew Janson, Nelle doesn't know if she can endure one more heartbreak. Miss Pearl, owner of the local apothecary shop, becomes a mother figure to Nelle, but a fateful summer day has Nelle questioning everything she's ever believed and wondering if she'll ever love again.
