There’s only one person she has ever loved: a village girl whom she hasn’t seen for years.

But after fate brings her stepson to a local boy, Winter makes a shocking discovery. May is still as beautiful as when Winter first set eyes on her. She immediately hires the woman as a servant... but it awakens a long-buried passion within Winter’s heart. She’s convinced that she’s too broken and unwanted to love – but will her reunion with May end in heartbreak, or will it be the only thing that can lead her out of the darkness that has become her life?
