Brotherly Love

Grace Thomlin has enjoyed growing up in Boston. The town was her playground and growing up with her brother, Will, and best friend, Cameron Stallworth, was exciting. They enjoyed the freedom they had to explore the island as it grew toward the river and Cambridge. They watched as hoards of immigrants came through the port and took up residents in the quickly overcrowding communities. As a blossoming young woman, her mother, Dorothea Thomlin, tried to curtail her tomboyish behavior much to Grace's dismay. She was chastised for climbing trees and smelling like the crabs she caught along the ocean's shoreline Now, in 1900, she is a young woman and looking forward to a proposal from Thomas Blaine, a young up-start lawyer. His ambitions drive him and Grace isn't sure she is the most important part of his life. To please him, she submits to all his plans and ideas. An accident changes everything as Grace tries to sort through what is believeable in her mind and what isn't. Through everything, Cameron is by her side.
