The start of a sweeping Scottish family saga series from Sunday Times bestselling author Evelyn Hood — perfect for fans of Catherine Cookson, Rosie Goodwin and Donna Douglas. 💔📚
Will one woman’s difficult past stand in the way of her future success?
Paisley, Scotland 1906
Eighteen years after being cast out by her father for falling pregnant, Kirsty Lennox returns to Paisley determined to lay the ghosts of the past to rest.
Most of the townsfolk are happy to see Kirsty return, but one in particular is resentful of Kirsty’s inheritance and seems determined to cause trouble for her.
Kirsty’s husband Matt takes over the cabinetmaking business running it with the help of their two eldest sons. Kirsty is determined to improve the family’s situation and becomes a part-time seamstress for a wealthy household and also helps an old friend with her second-hand clothing business.
When a tragic accident befalls the family one snowy February day, it casts a pall over Kirsty’s marriage and family life. Rivalry between the men in the family and Matt’s chronic illness place further strains on the family, and then Kirsty’s ability to earn an income is almost destroyed by an act of spite.
Help eventually arrives from two unlikely candidates but Kirsty’s troubled past threatens to thwart the family’s progress and the happiness of her children.
The start of The Lennox Family saga series from Evelyn Hood, the original bestselling Scottish saga writer.
