Book description
When friendship becomes love, two people must face their greatest fear
- being hurt again… The powerful besteller from the country's number one storyteller.
Luke Hammond: handsome, rich, charismatic, cursed by private tragedy.
Amy Atkinson: humble and kind with a good - but wounded - heart. When
they meet by chance, a spark of love takes hold of their hearts.
But neither are sure that they can dare to love again. And what of
Luke's public life, hidden from Amy? The owner of a large factory, he is
a pillar of the community, married - though in name only. Amy is torn
between her head and her heart, but her sense of honour is paramount -
and when she discovers his true identity, she is thrown into even
greater turmoil.
Then disaster strikes and the future looks troubled indeed …. Praise
for Josephine Cox:
'Cox's talent as a storyteller never lets you escape the spell.' Daily Mail
"In true Josephine Cox style, it's the triumph-over-tragedy formula
which has proved so successful in her previous novels…She captures the
period impeccably…' Express
'Impossible to resist.' Woman's Realm Josephine Cox was born in
Blackburn, one of ten children. At the age of sixteen, Josephine met and
married her husband Ken, and had two sons. When the boys started school,
she decided to go to college and eventually gained a place at Cambridge
University. She was unable to take this up as it would have meant living
away from home, but she went into teaching - and started to write her
first full-length novel. She won the 'Superwoman of Great Britain'
Award, for which her family had secretly entered her, at the same time
as her novel was accepted for publication.
