What to expect
Exeter, 1925. Della Wilde has set aside her dream of studying at the renowned Le Cordon Bleu, choosing instead to support her family torn apart by war. By night, she works at the prestigious Ambrose Café, serving the city’s elite – she feels utterly invisible.
Until a chance encounter with rebellious Alice Winters, the daughter of a powerful MP, upends Della’s world.
Alice is a woman caught between duty and desire. She secretly yearns to be an artist but is expected to marry a respectable suitor and raise a family. Della, with her sharp wit and quiet strength, makes Alice feel alive.
So she draws Della into her orbit – first as a muse, then as something infinitely more intimate. But their growing bond is a danger that threatens not only their futures, but those around them.
Will Alice and Della allow others to choose their path, or dare to forge their own?
