Discover this emotional, heartbreaking, coming of age story about love, loss and finding the courage to believe in yourself.

Set in 1925, the betrayal of her parents shocks seventeen-year-old Evie Brown. Stubborn, quick-tempered Evie must now face the frightful reality of her new life as she adjusts to the harsh demands of a wealthy, aristocratic family, the McCormicks. They are now her greatest enemy, especially the eldest son, Vincent.

As Evie suffers at the hands of Vincent’s cruel ways, Flynn McCormick (the second-born son - who in his parents’ eyes will never be as good as Vincent) tries to protect her.

Despite Evie’s reservations, she lowers her guard and accepts Flynn’s help. By doing so, Evie’s love from Flynn unravels. Not only has she fallen in love with the enemy, but Flynn has also set off a dream that she can follow the stars.

But the simple fact of who she is and where she comes from still haunts her. People like her never get a chance to dream.

This beautiful story promises to take the reader on an emotional journey. Thompson reminds us that life is fragile and that every moment matters.
