Minnie Westbrook never quite fit in. From an early age, she preferred the company of books over people, the quiet hum of museums over the noise of crowded social gatherings. Growing up in an upper-middle-class family, she was the daughter of a well-respected historian. Her mother, ever the socialite, hoped Minnie would follow in her footsteps, but instead, her daughter was more interested in preserving history than making small talk at high-society events.
Despite her striking hazel eyes and rich chocolate-brown hair, Minnie was often overlooked. She didn’t dress to impress, preferring classic silhouettes and comfortable flats over designer trends. At 5’5” with a shapely figure, she had an old-world beauty that wasn’t flashy but held a quiet elegance. What truly set her apart, however, was her mind—sharp, inquisitive, and filled with a love for history.
Now in her late twenties, Minnie has finally taken a step toward independence. Tired of the constant pressure from her mother to find a husband and the feeling of being stuck in the past, she packed her things and moved to South Florida, settling into a quiet unit at Sunset Beach Condos. The ocean breeze and golden sunsets offer a stark contrast to the academic halls and museum archives she’s so used to, but there’s something freeing about starting fresh, far away from her mother’s matchmaking attempts and society’s expectations.
She has carved out a fulfilling career as a museum curator, specializing in historical artifacts. Her work is her passion, and she finds joy in uncovering forgotten stories, piecing together the past, and ensuring history is preserved for future generations. But while she thrives professionally, her personal life is practically nonexistent. While her peers are getting engaged, going on extravagant vacations, or documenting their seemingly perfect lives on social media, Minnie is content with a cup of tea, a research paper, and the distant hope that one day, someone will see her—not just as the reserved historian working behind glass displays, but as a woman worth knowing.
Her mother still calls, still drops not-so-subtle hints about eligible bachelors, but Minnie is determined to live life on her own terms.
