Set in a fictional 19th-century town called Hope, this lush romance follows the saga of a broken-hearted woman struggling to protect her sister and her fortune from the ravages of ill-conceived love. Dorothea Brooke (Jennifer Ward-Lealand) tries to keep her sister from marrying the greedy and manipulative Fraser (Cliff Curtis) while she turns down advances from the local politician so that she can be with her lover, Anne Cooper. The stories and characters go around and around, with characters avoiding their truths and intentions to keep up their lies and facades. A steamy import from New Zealand. [Less]
