The irresistible novel from number one bestselling author Josephine Cox
'I can take him away from you any time I want.' Her mistress's cruel taunt is deeply disturbing to Jenny. But why should Claudia be interested in a servant's sweetheart? All the same, Jenny reckons without Claudia's vicious nature; using a wily trick she eventually seduces Frank, who, overcome with shame, leaves the household for a new life in Blackburn. Losing her sweetheart is just the first of many disasters that leave Jenny struggling to cope alone. When Claudia gives birth to a baby girl -- Frank's child -- she cruelly disowns the helpless infant and relies on Jenny to care for little Katie and love her as her own. Despite luring a kindly man into marriage that offers comfort and security to them all, Claudia secretly indulges her corrupt desires. Always afraid for the beloved child who has come to depend on her, Jenny is constantly called upon to show courage and fortitude to fight for all she holds dear. In her heart she yearns for Frank, believing that one day they must be reunited. When Fate takes a hand, it seems as though Jenny may see her dreams come true.
