Legend has it that looking into the enchanted Midnight Well on a full moon will reveal your true love’s face and bind your fates together forever.
Ruben Lindsey, heir to the Lindsey lands, was only tasked with delivering a letter but when he happens upon the mythical midnight well and sees the face of a beautiful woman in its waters – the same face of the woman he must deliver the letter to – he simply cant ignore the pull he feels to her.
Sabine “Modesty” Hawlyn feels confined by her rigid Puritan life enforced by her extremely religious father who has arranged for her to marry a man she does not want. She yearns for freedom and when a handsome stranger brings news from her eldest sister Prudence who was whisked away across the border to Scotland, she can’t help but hope for something more – especially now that she has also seen the Scotsman’s face in the waters of the well.
