"Robin and Sophie's love story is a sweeping tale filled with drama and yearning."—Teresa Grant, author of The Paris Affair Late in England's Victorian age, the world is changing—new freedoms, new ideas, and perhaps a chance for an old love to be new again... A love too strong to let go... Aspiring singer Sophie Tresilian had the world at her feet—fame, fortune, and true love—until the man of her dreams broke her heart. Now she's the toast of Europe, desired by countless men but unwilling to commit to any of them. Then Robin Pendarvis walks back into her life... Four years ago, Robin had hoped to make Sophie his bride, but secrets from his past forced him to let her go. Seeing her again revives all the old pain—and all the old passion. It might be against every rule, but somehow, some way, he will bring them together again. "Sherwood effortlessly evokes the world of Edith Wharton and Henry James...An elegantly written debut with a richness and depth worth savoring."—Booklist, STARRED REVIEW for Waltz with a Stranger
