The sensual Ladies of Haga Manor series culminates in Amelie’s story along the twists and turns of the second half of the 19th century.
Love doesn’t ask for permission.
It is the summer of 1856. Amelie can’t help falling deeply in love when she meets Hans Gustaf Boije af Gennäs, Baron of Haga Manor. Many consider Amelie as too modest for the heir of the estate, but the lovers are determined to have each other.
In Haga, the inexperienced bride faces the joys and responsibilities of marriage. Soon, the world around them changes as famine strikes and makes it clear that the fields alone cannot feed a nation. The estate’s new dairy school thrives, but Amelie’s own life is overshadowed by an illness creeping into the family, something about which one must be kept quiet. Is her dream of happiness still possible?
