In a world of elegance and excess, secretive author Lilly Westbrook longs for a love both true and eternal.

Lilly Westbrook is a daughter of Rhode Island’s high society were women just do not go out to work. But Lilly has a secret: she works. She is a novelist. Worse she is a writer of the cheap ‘Dime’ novels everyone despises but everyone reads.

So Lilly keeps her writing secret, penning her fiction under the name of Fannie Cole. No one suspects: not her family, not the wealthy young magnate about to propose to her, and not her ‘old-flame’ Jackson Grail who’s just bought the publisher that deal with her books. The secret is certain to get out, and even though Lilly gives away all her royalties to a women’s charity, no one in her world of mansions and money is going to be very impressed.

What will Lilly do? Conform to the standards expected of her or follow her own expectations of herself? Will she marry to satisfy her family or fulfil her own sense of who she is? What courage will she need if she can’t find a man who will risk everything just to win her heart?

First in the 'Ladies of Summerhill' series from author, Cara Lynn James.
