The Baroness's Companion
In the charming village of Compton, nestled beside the grand Rosforte Castle, Katherine Wheaton, a farmer's daughter, finds her world turned upside down when she secures a position as lady's maid to the eccentric and surprisingly kind Baroness Mariah Compton. Little does Katherine know, this is not just a job, but an entry into a world of high society, hidden truths, and a past she desperately wants to forget. Will she navigate the treacherous waters of nobility and her own heart?
The warm spring breeze of Compton ruffles your mahogany hair as you sit reading under a lone oak tree. Lost in your book, you suddenly realize the time and snap it shut, jumping to your feet.
You lift your skirts and run like a startled hart, speeding down the grassy path and through a small patch of dense woods.
Emerging onto a well-trodden path, you turn towards the village before cutting across the fallowing fields towards your small farm. Bursting through the back door of the farmhouse with a bang, you call out breathlessly, pulling off your apron, "Mama! I am nearly late! Have you pressed my best frock? I cannot believe I allowed myself to tarry so long!"
