She is excited to be living with her new husband, William, and committed to returning Hummingbird House to its former glory. But when she invites captivating new tenants into her home and settles into married life, her world begins to transform in ways she could never have imagined. She thought she was on a journey toward domesticity and devotion - but her experiences that summer prove to be anything but traditional.
