The gilded hour / Sara Donati.

"One cousin is afraid of love. The other is desperate to save it" -- Cover.

The year is 1883, and although young surgeon Anna Savard and her cousin, Sophie, have become successful physicians, they never recovered from the losses they suffered as children. So when Anna encounters a child who's lost nearly everything, she must decide whether or not she's willing to let go of the past and let love into her life. Meanwhile, Sophie's memories of being left alone in the world propel the young obstetrician to help a desperate mother--and catapult her into the orbit of a very dangerous man.
