Publisher's Synopsis
As a biochemist in early 1900s New York, Doctor Rosalind Werner has dedicated her life to the crusade against waterborne diseases. She is at the forefront of ground-breaking technology that will change the way water is delivered to every household in the city - but only if she can get people to believe in her work. Nicholas Drake is highly skeptical. When thrown into direct confrontation with her, he is surprised by his reaction. While Rosalind and Nick wage a private war against their own attraction, they stand firmly on opposite sides of a battle that will impact far more than just their own lives. As the controversy grows more public, the odds stacked against them swiftly grow more insurmountable with every passing day.
