Book description
For Mary Callaghan marriage has brought heartaches and disappointment.
But with it have come joys, the greatest of which are her daughters,
Daisy and Nell. Mary longs for them to have the one thing denied to her
-- a husband who will offer them kindness, security and love. But when
Daisy confesses she's pregnant, Mary knows the future looks grim, for
the father's a rough, pleasure-loving man. As Nell watches her sister
sink into bitter poverty, and as the world around her grows more
uncertain, with war more likely by the day, risking all for love seems
to Nell a foolish game...
