Description
A dramatic and heartwarming Victorian saga, perfect for fans of Maggie Hope and Anne Bennett.
Will she find love again?
Ironbridge, 1892.
When seventeen-year-old Maria Keay is offered an exciting job in a department store in Shrewsbury, she is determined to follow her dream, even if that means leaving behind her childhood sweetheart, Charlie.
At first, Maria's new life is everything she dreamed it would be. Her new job is glamorous, and she even catches the eye of Oskar, a charming German chemistry student who makes several trips to her sales desk.
But the true reality of shop work - with its long hours and low pay - soon takes its toll, and when her relationship with Oskar takes a dark and devastating turn, Maria must decide if moving away from home - and Charlie - was the right decision after all . . .
