England, 19th century. He called me “a little bird”—with mocking contempt. But when I pulled him out of an icy lake, everything changed. Now this haughty aristocrat follows me with his gaze, leaves books for me, and whispers words that could get both of us expelled.
I have to be smarter. But how can I resist when his gray eyes look at me not like a servant, but as an equal—when he’s ready to go against his family just to protect me?
This novel will ruin us both. But we’ll still try to become happy…
A kind, sweet story about love, difficult choices, and the price you’ll have to pay. A novella.
