Delia Sweeney has always felt overshadowed by her older sister, Nora, who is favored by their mother and expected to marry well. While Nora is tall and striking, Delia is fair and delicate, finding solace in helping their father on the farm and dreaming of distant lands. Everything changes when a letter from a distant relative offers the sisters a chance to travel to New York. Delia will work as a maid, while Nora takes a position as a governess for a wealthy family. They board the Titanic, but Delia's hopes for sisterly bonding quickly fade as the ship faces unforeseen dangers during its maiden voyage. After the tragedy, Delia makes a bold decision to assume Nora's identity as governess, leading her on an unexpected adventure from Fifth Avenue to the oilfields of Dallas, Texas. As she navigates her new life, she grows close to her young charge and her father, but the consequences of her deception loom large, bringing both joy and unforeseen challenges. Delia's journey is one of self-discovery, love, and the pursuit of happiness against all odds.
