About This Book

In a quiet Worcestershire town in 1902, the return from the Boer War of dashing, handsome and newly rich Johnny Purvis has a devastating effect on the lives of three very different women…
Cleopatra Dolton: beautiful and intelligent, her life is made miserable by the violence of her drunken husband.
Miriam Josceleyne: At the mercy of her invalid father and penny-pinching brother, reconciling herself to a dull life as a spinster.
Emma Farr: A spirited girl from the slums, she has set her sights on being more than a maid. And if that means manipulating her employers, then so be it…

Into each of their lives comes a man who can help them achieve their dreams. And at the dawning of the Edwardian era, the town will be rife with rumours and scandal, and destinies changed forever.
