About this listen

 THE FIRST BOOK IN A HEART-WARMING, MOVING TRILOGY FROM BESTSELLING AUTHOR MARY WOOD, WRITING AS MAGGIE MASON
The perfect read for fans of Kitty Neale, Val Wood and Rosie Goodwin.

Blackpool, 1893

Tilly has come a long way from the run-down tenements in which she grew up. She has a small but comfortable home, a loving, handsome husband, two beautiful little'uns - Babs and Beth - and she earns herself a little money weaving wicker baskets. Life is good.

Until the day Tilly returns home to find a policeman standing on her doorstep. Her Arthur won't be coming home tonight - nor any night - having fallen to his death whilst working on Blackpool tower. Suddenly Tilly is her daughters' sole protector, and she's never felt more alone.

With the threat of destitution nipping at their heels, Tilly struggles to make ends meet and keep a roof over her girls' heads. In a town run by men Tilly has to ask herself what she's willing to do to keep her family together and safe - and will it be enough?

This is a difficult review...parts of this book made me very uncomfortable - so many violations of Tilly's body by men she met, her kids - not looking for them once she had the money to do so, the words describing decent love, even made my husband blush, lol. Other parts of the book were good, where she helps her friends, when she's in the sanitorium. I don't think I'll listen to the next book in the series which is sad but the stomach twisting bits outweighed the nice, parts for me.

Always love this narrator, liked then hated listening to this book.
