Kent, 1814
Molly Dawson, now a respectable married woman, lives with her husband, head gardener Charlie, on the Woodchurch Manor estate, where they have brought up three delightful daughters. Her life appears idyllic . . . but she has suffered the torment of a secret since she was eighteen years old.
When George Smith - a young stranger fresh out of the Navy - appears at the estate's annual garden party, Molly's life is set to change again . . .
Could he be a suitable match for one of her daughters? Or is this charming young man a threat to her hard-won happiness?
Can Molly ever overcome the consequences of a decision she made long ago to find true joy and fulfilment at last?
