Summary

Ireland, 1851. After enduring years of the devastating potato famine, Ellen Kittrick is a survivor. To put food on the table, and to stop the landowner's agent from tearing down their cottage due to unpaid rent, Ellen defies her family and works at an Englishman's manor. But with an unemployed husband and a secretive brother-in-law wanting her for his own, she must face every challenge with new strength.

With aid coming from the unlikely source of Englishman Rafe Hamilton, Ellen leaves Ireland with what is left of her family to start again in a new country. But will the colony give her the security and happiness she longs for, especially when she has left her heart behind? Can Ellen thrive in a strange land - or has she made the greatest mistake of her life?

OH MY!

This book has it all, I was shouting out loud, "what next" and "oh no" and then smiling to myself. A rollacoaster of emotions and didn't want it to end. Absolutely brilliant story from AnneMarie Brear and with such wonderful narration by Caroline Lennon the story came alive from the first spoken word.
fully recommend... now onto book 2. ❤️📚
