With the Industrial Revolution in full swing, Yorkshire’s textile industry is changing, but Kate’s father, a successful but feared clothier, rejects technological advances.

With his military days behind him, Nicholas Stockton returns home to England and expects to take his place in the family business-a textile mill in Ambledale. But when his grandfather dies suddenly and leaves the struggling mill entirely in his care, Nicholas is confronted with the monumental task of righting his grandfather’s wrongs, especially when it comes to the manner in which the mill workers have been treated.
Kate is wary of the handsome man now running the Stockton Mill, but after spending time with him in various social settings and watching him advocate for the less fortunate, she warms to him.

As her father becomes increasingly desperate, Kate faces the impossible choice: preserve her father’s legacy and sacrifice her own dreams, or put her fate in the hands of a man she barely knows and fight for the future she has come to believe in.

But as she gets to know the enigmatic man behind the reputation, it’s as if the jagged pieces of both of their pasts slowly begin to fit together . . . until something so unexpected happens that it changes the course of their relationship-and both their lives-forever.
