LOVE ONCE MORE for generations, Dorrie Bennington's family had been part of New Zealand, a pioneer land which enriched them with success, but plagued them with scandal and tragedy. Dorrie, orphaned from birth, was destined to spend her childhood in the grand but somber estate of the family matriarch, Grandmaire, Peridot, who made no secret of her dislike for the child and left Dorrie to live in genteel poverty when she died.

Cruelly disillusioned by love and determined to build financial security, Dorrie created her own stunning success in the millinery business. And forsaking romance with a man she believed belonged to another, she denied her own desires, until a fateful confrontation with hidden truths freed her at last to answer the passionate voice of her heart.
