After a flood damages the looms at Zenus Dane's Philadelphia textile
mill and the bank demands loan payment, Zenus turns to his aunt for help
repurposing his textiles. Trouble is...his aunt has already been hired
by the lovely yet secretive Englishwoman Mary Varrs. Eager to acquire
his aunt's quilt patterns, Zenus attends the summer Quilting Bee, a
social event his aunt has uniquely designed with the secret purpose of
finding Zenus a wife. However Zenus only has eyes for Mary, but Mary has
no such desire for him. Though his aunt is determined to design a
masterpiece marriage, both Zenus and Mary will have to overcome their
stubborn ways. Can he realize that love requires stepping out of his
routine? And will she recognize that following her heart doesn't mean
sacrificing her ambition?
