Publisher's Synopsis
Eliza is just fourteen years old when she is forced out of her home one freezing winter's night. Lost and alone, she struggles across the snowy moors before collapsing on the doorstep of the reclusive Fay, who nurses her back to health. Eliza discovers a love of the wilderness and a talent for making perfume from the local flowers. More than anything though, she longs for a real home. She takes an apprenticeship as a perfumer in a distant town, but is miserable, until a handsome young man invites Eliza into his heart, and his home. It looks like Eliza may finally find a family for Christmas.
