Summary
Alice Lee, middle-aged and unmarried, is the only volunteer when the minister asks his congregation to help young Zebediah Bailey.
Zeb is in prison for a ghastly crime, and the townspeople would rather forget than forgive this local lad who lost his way. But Alice dutifully writes to him every week, sending him sweets from the little shop that is her livelihood: Alice Lee's Confectionary. She won't admit she's lonely, but since her parents' deaths, making and selling sweets has become her whole world.
Then Zeb comes out of gaol, and Alice agrees to take him in, much to the horror of her neighbours. What develops between them is unexpected - intense and bittersweet. It could be a new beginning or else the undoing of them both....

Captivating
This audio book had me hooked from the start. The storyline and the narrator just made the whole book perfect.
I'm disappointed that the 2nd book isn't available on audible yet... ticktock

Heartwarming story from Co. Durham
Love Elizabeth Gill books. Alice Lee is a true guardian Angel, a very kind and gentle person. Can’t wait to listen to Elizabeths next book on audible. Update. Still waiting for the next book in the series (The Quarryman’s wife) to be available on audible.

Well written but …
A very well written book by Elizabeth Gill and well narrated by Julia Barrie. Very descriptive storyline but I found it laborious and went on far to long. I was bored by it but felt I had used a credit on it so would see it to the end. I was glad when it ended !!!
