Publisher's Synopsis
Dartmoor, 1858. Elizabeth Thornton has every reason to want to escape from home, a ramshackle farm in the middle of nowhere on the wilds of Dartmoor. Since her father's death, she's been trapped here, in the clutches of her uncle. When a position opens up at Rosebank Hall, she jumps at the chance. She will be a domestic drudge at the beck and call of the house's master. It's hardly the career of her dreams. Elizabeth wants to be a doctor, but she'll do anything to be free of her uncle. Then one night, the master's wayward son turns up, wounded in a conflict in a foreign country - damaged in every way a person can be. But as Elizabeth nurses him back to life, the pair grow closer and everything changes. But Elizabeth's uncle isn't ready to relinquish her yet . . . Will she keep on fighting for her freedom?
