Audrey Garnet lives a sheltered life in the exclusive Argentinian community of Hurlingham. That is, until Cecil & Louis Forrester arrive, travelling from England to make their fortunes.

Admired by all for her beauty & grace, Audrey quickly catches the eyes of both brothers, but it is talented-but-troubled outsider Louis with his musical flair whom she is drawn to most.

Cecil, however, is a better match – a decorated war hero who has charmed the entire community, including Audrey’s parents, forcing Audrey to keep her true feelings a secret.

But when a family tragedy rocks Audrey’s world, she is faced with a terrible dilemma: must she do her duty to her family, or will she finally be able to follow her heart?
