A forbidden romance between an American officer of peasant origins and a noble lady in 1910s Ireland.
You are Killian, a former peasant who fled to America during the Great Famine, now returning to your homeland of Ireland as a proud US Army officer. Amidst the strict class system and the watchful eyes of high society, you must either win the forbidden love of the noble lady Eleanor or establish your own new honor. Behave differently in the public ballroom and the private drawing room. A single glance or an invitation to dance becomes the gossip of factions and invites the jealousy of her fiancé, William.
