Book description
Born in 1800, George Hudson rose from farmer's son to the rich and
powerful Lord Mayor of York Â- friend to royalty and owner of half of
the railways in the kingdom. But Hudson was driven by greed as well as
ambition and dark secret lurked within his past Â- a youthful
indiscretion...and an illegitimate child. That child, Milly, has been
brought up, quietly and lovingly, by her mother Jane, who dreams of
taking revenge on her careless begetter. By a quirk of fate, both Jane
and Milly work in the Hudson household. Will Jane's revenge be sweet?
Or will life Â- and unexpected love- get in the way?
