Turn of the Century

A LOVE NEVER FORGOTTEN
Peridot was the daughter of Lord and Lady Sinclair; Violet, the child of the gardener on their country estate. But when they met as children, it was the beginning of a friendship that would last for life.

As Violet grew into a ravishing beauty and discovered how easily she could turn a man's head, she knew she had found a way to move into the privileged milieu of the haute monde. Accepting the role of courtesan as her entrée, she quickly became the toast of Paris, while Peridot, both to the life Violet coveted, wanted more from the dawning century than a Victorian lady could ever have dreamed of. Abandoning her life of leisure and luxury for a Bohemian freedom that scandalized her family, Peridot joined with the suffragettes in their struggle against repression.

But even as Violet and Peridot moved into their radically different worlds, they continued to share their joys and sorrows...and the love of one man who changed both their lives.
