Publisher's Synopsis
Victorian Era England: Harriet won't stand by while her family's inheritance slips through their fingers. Her uncle worked hard to build a stable business before he passed it to her husband William. But when her stepfather-in-law, Mr. Wetherby, presumes ownership of the company, Harriet fights to stand her ground. William longs for a quiet life, but with a growing family and Harriet's determination to succeed, he stretches himself beyond his means. When Mr. Wetherby refuses to help, only the intervention of William's mother Mary keeps their dream of a better future in reach. But as tensions in the family business escalate, Harriet may have far more to worry about than pursuing her own ambitions.
