Description
by Fiona McIntosh (Author)
In an ancient orchard, a fallen woman rises to claim her destiny
In the shadows of Edwardian society, talented botanical artist Jane Saville faces an impossible choice when her ruthless mother exiles her to the English countryside to protect another's reputation. Forced to live in poverty and secrecy to shield her family from scandal, Jane's world seems destined for darkness until she meets Guy Attwood.
Heir to an industrial fortune, Guy defies his family's ambitions, choosing instead to pursue his passion: hunting England's rarest apples for the Royal Kew Gardens. His quest to find an endangered species worthy of naming for the soon-to-be King George V leads him to a hidden orchard--and to Jane.
As their worlds intertwine beneath the ancient spires of Salisbury Cathedral, Jane dares to dream of a different future. But in a society ruled by duty and appearances, their blossoming friendship awakens dangerous jealousies. When treachery and misunderstanding threaten to tear them apart, it will take the innocent wisdom of a child to show Jane that her greatest strength lies not in conforming to society's rules, but in daring to defy them.
An instant bestseller, The Fallen Woman is a heart-wrenching story of love, courage and defiance that will have fans of Rhys Bowen and Lucinda Riley absolutely mesmerised.
