Miss Simone Priest met Daniel Cavendish when she was sixteen through a letter and a miracle. But her innocent and unrequited love turns mysterious when Daniel suddenly disappears.

Now at twenty-five and stripped of her girlish hair ribbons and fantasies, Simone meets Daniel again. But he's completely changed. Long gone is the charming actor who inspired her to pursue her passion and dreams. He's now surrounded by an air of cold mystery and authority that makes him even more unreachable. It will not be long before Simone discovers why he disappeared, and why, when it seems that his feelings have changed, she is not the one he should want.

The Abberton Series will center on the Stratford cousins and their life in their beloved home, Abberton.

I hope everyone will enjoy this new family as they did the Haverstons and the Everards.

Very Truly Yours,
