Just as love begins to grow between them, a devastating hurricane strikestearing them apart before they've even had a chance.

When a letter goes missing, Raphael is left thinking Rose is gone for goodand heads off to fight in the war in Europe with a broken heart. Rose, meanwhile, begins to piece together the mystery of her birth. A job in a wealthy household, a stolen locket, and an accusation she can't explain all lead her closer to the truth.
