Newport, 1895. After failing to make a positive impression on New York's 'old money', Madeline Crosby and her beloved brother and protector, Hugh, escape to their inherited summer house in Newport. As Hugh's half-sister who spent most of her childhood in a brothel until her mother died - something society is unwilling to forgive - Beachlands is the fresh start Madeline desperately needs. The siblings expand their social circle, making 'new money' acquaintances. Despite his good nature, Hugh is prone to flirting and Madeline captures the unwanted attention of the man whose family destroyed her mother and continues to exploit women. As lines are crossed and reputations threatened, Madeline becomes determined to ignore her heart and fix the situation. But can she keep her tarnished past buried? And will she ever allow herself to love?
