    Summary

    Mary Bennet could be described with three words: intelligent, agreeable, and careful. She was also a damn good pianist, having dedicated her entire life to the study of the craft. As the only pianist for the London Symphony Orchestra, she was accomplished. Happy.
    Right...?

    Summary

    Thomas Hayward recognized a few universal truths about life. One, that a single man who was not in possession of a good fortune must work for everything he has. Two, that love was not something that people merely acquired without equal amounts of hard work and finally, that you always wanted Mrs. Gardiner on your side.

    Through it all, they must learn not only how to face what is coming, but also how to become the family they were always meant to be.

    Summary

    Tom Hayward thought he knew what it meant to wait in uncertainty. He had sat outside sickrooms before. Had listened to muffled, somber voices behind doors that would not open for him. He had learned that particular shape of helplessness that came from being close enough to hear pain, but not close enough to stop it. He had thought, at that time, that it was the worst kind of distance. He was wrong. This was worse.

    Tom's thoughts as he waits outside Mary's delivery room.
