About This Book

Love, Lies, and Survival: The Unforgettable Conclusion to the Cavanagh Family series!

Will Kitty and her family break free from the mills of Blackburn and seize their chance at a new life in America?

–

It's been several years since Kitty Cavanagh's life was turned upside down when her family made the perilous journey across the Irish Sea to Blackburn and she became a widow.

After facing near destitution she's finally making enough to put food on the table and keep a roof over their heads.

Until, that is, the day she is out rag collecting and finds a bag of coins – coins that turn out to be counterfeit – and Kitty soon finds herself caught up in a police investigation.

If found guilty, Kitty could end up losing everything she's worked so hard to protect.

Questioned by charming Constable Westwell, Kitty doesn't know if she can really trust him. Dare she open her heart to him?

But will the truth damn, or save, her?
