Summary | It is 1932 and Marion Crawford has her future mapped out. She has always dreamt of being a teacher, helping the children who need her most -- and one day, perhaps, she hopes to fall in love and have children of her own. But everything is thrown off-course by a job offer she cannot refuse. She starts teaching the young princesses, Lillibet and Margaret, and is suddenly indispensable to the Royal family. Pulled into this extraordinary world, Marion starts to put her duty before her dreams. Without knowing it, she begins to lose herself. And, when she meets George and falls in love for the first time, Marion faces an impossible choice. |
