Description
When her loving but strict parents pass away, twenty-one-year-old Megan is left penniless and alone. However, for the first time in her life, she finally has the freedom to explore who she really is.
She begins to come out of her shell, trying daring new things such as wearing makeup, buying modern clothes and going out dancing. Soon, she starts stepping out with a solid, dependable local man. And when she is taken under the wing of the wealthy Celia Bevington, she discovers that there is so much more to life than working as a paintress in the local pottery factory.
But as she gets to know Nathan, a dashing American visitor, she starts to question whether she should be wanting more from life. On top of that, a mysterious silver hairbrush left to her by her late mother is about to lead to revelations that will turn her world upside down...
When the chance comes to fulfil her every hope, will she find the courage to follow her heart?

Thank you to Netgalley for this advanced reader's copy. A story that pulls you in. Characters very engaging and likeable. I'll be on the look out for more from Margaret Kaine.
this is Megan Cresswell story. the book is set in Longton stoke-on-trent. working as a paintress at the pottery factory. her mother and father have both passed away and she finds herself alone, and having to cope with the upkeep of the house. her neighbours Rita and Clarice think she should seek out a husband, this is time for changes and freedom that she has never had before. she meets American Nathan Brittles but its only a short courtship and he goes home but no other man matches up to him, throughout times to come. seeking out an extra job to make ends meet Celia Bevington gives her a sunday afternoon reading job to her and Megans life is all set to change for the better. how i loved everything about this book, so enchanting to read in every way. a delightful story of happiness right to the end.
With thanks to hodder and stoughton and netgalley for an Arc my first time reading this wonderful author.
A daughter's hope is a magical tale of intrigue warmth but above all Hope,
I was totally captivated from the first few pages and certainly not let down I laughed and cried Megan's life changed totally the day her mum passed away and how she turned her life round I can't praise this book enough
