Can turning a dream into a plan make it come true? Two very different people hope that it can.
In a remote corner of 1780's England, young Catherine Nelson wants to marry but understands the damage love can cause. Her dream is to find love, but also to plan, design and enjoy her life. Is that possible for a woman of the 18th Century?
In India, restless, worldly George Matcham wonders if the life he dreams of in the countryside of far-away England could make him happy. Is he Indian or English? Is he a traveler or a homebody? Can he be all of those?
For each of them to achieve their plan, they must learn a great deal about themselves and their worlds. As different as they are, how can they make room for each other in their own, very different, carefully perfect plans?
Based on real people in a colorful time, this is a personal view of a vital, historic family, and celebrates a love that lasted forty-seven years.
A Perfect Plan is the first book of the Helena's Stories series, which brings personal points of view to history through the stories of remarkable families from the 11th through 19th centuries.
