About This Book

A young woman named Violet survives a terrifying accident and becomes entangled in conflicting promises of marriage, social expectations, and rival claims of betrothal. She asserts her own will amid family and suitor pressures, endures confinement and the belief that death has released a pledge, and confronts a postponed wedding and disputed marital status. Separation by ocean, shifting alliances among men, and a return to America lead Violet to a new engagement, work with an unruly pupil, and a personal triumph followed by another accident. The narrative follows her negotiations of duty, desire, and agency within romantic and social constraints.
