The moment Martha noticed Raymond on the train, everything her mother warned against erupted - romantic notions, palpitating heart, the desire to write it all in a novel and tell the world.

She wasn’t the girl he planned to marry. David was her father’s apprentice, everything Martha’s mother said made a good husband - hardworking, no romantic tendencies.
