Part One: Gwendolyn
Young, perky Gwendolyn Crutoe has her life planned out; marry the love of her life Albert and take care of her drunken father. What then happens when her subconscious father gambles her and loses? 

She is whisked off by a total stranger and with no hope of getting her old life back or the man of her dreams.

Part Two: Alexa
Given a second chance at getting a good life, Alexa just has one thing in mind, to live life to its fullest. But what happens when something... or someone else occupies her mind.

The Maidens (Crutoe Sisters)

"Albert!" I called, trying to catch up to him. "Wait, please! You know the truth now, denying it won't help anyone. Why don't you read the letter and find out what your mother wanted to say to you?" He didn't stop, he just kept walking towards the house. 


"Albert? You need..." I stopped as I felt uneasy suddenly, my body felt like... I looked down as I felt something wet roll down my thighs. Is the baby coming? 


"My baby! Albert..." I couldn't bring myself to move. Luckily for me, Albert stopped then and turned around with a frown which quickly changed to a look of surprise as he rushed to me. 


"I think so, my water just broke." He wasted no time in picking me up and taking me into the house, all the while shouting for the midwives. 


I was placed on my bed as the midwives got ready to deliver my baby, Alexa was at my side and Albert looked out of place, as he looked like he was wondering if he should leave or stay.
