The Sunday Times bestseller is back with a gripping, heart-wrenching
tale, perfect for fans of Dilly Court's A Village Scandal, Katie Flynn
and Rosie Goodwin.
Denied
Seventeen-year-old Constance has had a privileged upbringing in Clapham,
with staff to attend to her every need. But her parents have always been
cold and distant, never showing her love.
Disowned
Craving affection, Constance falls into the arms of Albie Jones, the
cook's grandson. But one fateful encounter leaves her ashamed and
pregnant, and she is soon shunned from the family home.
Desperate
Heartbroken and threatened by scandal, Constance is forced to wed Albie
and moves to Battersea, where she suffers unforgiving stares and cruel
whispers from the neighbours. Trapped in a bitter and loveless marriage
without a penny to her name, Constance has no choice but to stay and
surrender. Will she ever find freedom - or happiness - again?
