The BRAND NEW historical saga from AnneMarie Brear
A broken heart, a shameful secret...
Wakefield, Yorkshire 1871
Loretta Chambers has spent her life working at her father's boatyard down at the docks. She's tried hard to keep the business afloat, but with the railways taking trade away every day, Lorrie fears for the worst.
The arrival of handsome Italian, Matteo Falcone brings a brief glimmer of hope and a yearning inside Lorrie for another life, away from the filthy grime of the dockside. But despite her feelings for Matteo, she could never travel to Italy with him, and leave her father alone.
But one reckless, impetuous moment leaves Lorrie with a secret she will struggle to hide. And when tragedy strikes at the boatyard, Lorrie is left feeling more alone than ever before.
Always a dutiful daughter, Lorrie now carries a shame that could ruin her life forever...
