    “Book Descriptions: You’re a young woman. You can choose. Which career to pursue. Who to have sex with. Who to marry and have children—or not—with. This is now.

    Step into the shoes of Olive. You’re a happy, open-hearted girl. Your (tricky) mother is dead, and you live with your father in a solid Edwardian house with apple trees in the garden. He’s a kind man who does his fair share around the house. Your passion for books gets you easily into university, where the world is surely waiting for you.

    There, you take part in a play and are noticed by the leading man. Even though he’s not as glamorous off-stage, he becomes your boyfriend. But then you make a mistake—the kind any one of us could make—and face an impossible choice. You are young, still, and full of hope. You can’t possibly know how that mistake will sit in your heart. Or that when you get a job at a wonderful school, you will meet an older colleague and fall in love. But the affair must stay secret; the world won’t have it any other way.

    All you have ever wanted is for your heart to be free. But you are living in a time and place where freedoms we now take for granted had the power to destroy.”
