Synopsis
Two households, one river, and a clash of love and duty
Across the Lennan, a grand country house stands beside a modest cottage, split by a river with no bridge. On one side lives Ida Greythorne, an heiress who enjoys luxury at every turn; on the other, Dick Forrester, the clever, contented son of a family rebuilding its fortunes. The tale follows their quiet but steadfast bond as family expectations, money worries, and social pressures pull them toward two very different futures. A delicate balance between romance and responsibility drives the events, with the Lennan as a constant reminder of the choices that shape a life. In this story of love contested by class and circumstance, readers meet a cast of vivid characters each pursuing their own path toward happiness. The book explores duty to family, the pull of old loyalties, and the price of following one’s heart when the world looks on.
- A forbidden love tested by social expectations and financial pressures
- Sharp portraits of family dynamics and old-money privilege
- A vivid, North Country setting that frames the emotional stakes
- A steady, contemplative pace that builds toward a decisive moment

This book is set in a beautiful, rural location where the River Lennan divides two familiesâ"the Greythornes, who live on the south bank, and the Forresters, who live on the north.

The attraction between them is immediate, but their different stations in life threaten to keep them apart.
