But they both come to discover that ambitions which had once seemed so clear may evolve when hearts are softened.SIGNS OF LOVE by Annette LyonWhen the Hughes family vacations in Brighton, Julia goes exploring for fossils along the Undercliff path-a hobby she's developed thanks to her curiosity in science. Instead of finding fossils, she stumbles upon Silas Hayward, a handsome wine smuggler, and one of his crew. She slips away undetected but is intrigued by Hayward and drawn to him later at a ball held at the Royal Pavilion. Her long-time friend Andrew is in love with Julia and declares his heart to her at the ball. She's stunned and doesn't know how to answer, but right then, Mr. Hayward conveniently takes her away to the dance floor. The distraction is brief, however; Julia quickly learns that the Hayward is far more than a harmless wine smuggler: he's a traitor to the nation. If she can't stop his plot with Andrew's help, the country will fall to Napoleon.
