What to expect

Will she make it on her own?

Her strength is all she has left…

When Dorothy meets Robbie, he sweeps her off her feet. The pair’s whirlwind romance soon leads to an engagement, but then an unexpected pregnancy changes everything. Robbie disappears without a word, leaving Dorothy to face the shame and heartbreak alone.

Determined to carry on, Dorothy throws herself into work, helping to support her struggling parents in Battersea. But with her father’s health failing and money getting tighter, life grows harder with each passing day.

With Robbie still nowhere to be found, Dorothy must fight for a brighter future. Can she find the courage to make her own way – or is someone else waiting in the wings to save her?

Gritty and moving, this is the perfect read for fans of Dilly Court and Katie Flynn.
