An Ocean of Stars

Boston, 1879. Phoebe Van Bergen has poured everything into the Van Bergen Women’s Hospital, her inheritance, her defiance, her desperate need to be more than society’s gilded ornament. Within its cramped wards, she matters.

Here, she is not the obedient fiancée of a man whose charm masks something darker. Here, she can breathe.

Then Dr. Douglas McLennan arrives from Scotland, brilliant, abrasive, and haunted by a loss so devastating he’s vowed never to love again. He dismisses Phoebe as a privileged do-gooder. She thinks him insufferably arrogant. Neither expects their clashes to become the most honest conversations of their lives.
