| Summary: | When Elinor Coombes is swept into a fairy-tale marriage with the son of English aristocrats, she soon realizes that it was the appeal of her father's hard-earned wealth rather than her own pretty face that attracted her new husband and his family. Ground down by rigid social rules that include her being allowed to see her nanny-raised infant son for only moments each day, Elinor faces a lonely future. But a present from her father - tickets for the maiden voyage of the RMS Titanic offers a welcome escape from the cold, controlling atmosphere of her husband's ancestral home, and some precious time with her little son, Teddy. After the ship goes down, Elinor grasps at the chance to take Teddy and start a new life in America. After stealing another woman's identity, a now penniless Elinor must put that terrible night behind her and learn to survive in a brash new world that couldn't be more different from her own. And when a face from the past appears, she must risk everything to keep her secret - and her son. |
