The Girl With The Stolen Rose By Cora Matthews
1922: Holding my hands in his, the only father I’ve ever known whispers the words that will change the course of my life: ‘Darling Rose, my most loyal maid. I’ve spent my life collecting the rarest of flowers from around the world. But now the time has come to return them to their rightful home. Promise me you will?’
Climbing aboard a steamship bound for Greece, a precious bloom wrapped carefully in her luggage, Rose is filled with nervous excitement. She has never left her village before, never known anything outside her life at Ashbourne House. But she has made a promise, one she refuses to break, and she needs courage now more than ever.
Stepping foot onto the island of Santorini, Rose is in awe of the wild Aegean sea sparkling against the rugged coastline. This is where the delicate wild rose once grew, and where she must ensure it returns to the land. But before she can, a chance meeting with a mysterious fisherman changes her fate forever…
