From the Back Cover:

A missionary with no converts . . .
A lady with no manners . . .
An adventure like none before . . .

In her silk sari and bare feet, Violet Rosse is anything but a proper English miss. Born in England but raised in India, Violet has fallen passionately in love with the flora and fauna of her adopted country. So when her father makes plans to ship her back to England to marry, Violet will do everything in her power to thwart his wishes and keep the only home she’s ever known.

In desperation, Violet’s father convinces frustrated missionary Edmund Sherbourne to find Violet and escort her back to England. Little does Edmund realize what it will mean to capture Violet and transplant her to foreign soil.

As Edmund and Violet cross paths in pursuit of impossible dreams, they embark on an adventure that will change their lives forever.
