Escaping the constraints of life as a village schoolmistress, Lilia Brooke bursts into London and into Paul Harris's orderly life, shattering his belief that women are gentle creatures who need protection. Lilia wants to change women's lives by advocating for the vote, free unions, and contraception. Paul, an Anglican priest, has a big ambition of his own: to become the youngest dean of St. John's Cathedral. Lilia doesn't believe in God, but she's attracted to Paul's intellect, ethics, and dazzling smile. -- amazon.com

A Poignant Love Story Set During British Suffragette Campaign submitted by sVfGI7Glt2pz7GZgVB90 on August 21, 2020, 6:41am Set in England in 1907, a suffragette who doesn't believe in matrimony and a man of the church who very much does find themselves with very complicated feelings for each other. This true examination of two people trying to settle their countervailing enterprises and their different beliefs and love for each other feels extraordinary when so few people truly seem to know how to listen.
