Davie, shy, and a little disorientated, pressed closer to his mother.
‘Perhaps he won’t always be shy of me,’ Guy said.
Before she could reply, Davie, still a little distressed by the rush and his mother’s tears and the strange scene, said, ‘Mammy, where are we? Have we got to where we’re going?’
‘What, dear?’ she said. And then: ‘Yes, we have.’
‘But – but where are we?’ His anxiety sounded in his voice. ‘Are we far from home?’
And now Lydia smiled, the faintest smile that just touched at the corners of her mouth. Relief. A look of relief. Her throat was tight with tears that could so easily be shed.
‘No, darling,’ she said, drawing him closer. She kissed the top of his head and looked at Guy over the boy’s hair. ‘No, my darling, we’re close. We’re very close.’

SO LONG AT THE FAIR
Growing up in a small Wiltshire village, Abbie Morris knows what lies ahead of her – a life of drudgery as a menial servant. But when Abbie’s mother casts the family into crisis, her world is turned upside down.
Six years later, the Morrises are rebuilding their lives and when Abbie and her sister Beatie set off for the country fair, the world seems a good place. Until a chance encounter with Louis, a handsome stranger, leads to tragedy.
Abbie struggles to put that terrible evening behind her, and when Arthur Gilmore comes into her life believes she might even find happiness. But then her past catches up with her, and it seems she might never cease to pay for the night she stayed so long at the fair . . .
TOO CLOSE TO THE SUN
When Grace Harper is orphaned, her world falls apart. Life has always been hard, and now she and her little brother Billy are left homeless and alone.
But Grace must put her grief and fear aside, and think practically. Accepting a job as companion to the wealthy, lonely Mrs Spencer means that she and Billy have a roof over their heads, but just as Grace starts to find her feet disaster strikes again.
Things look desperate, and when she is offered the good life for herself and Billy, Grace is tempted. But is she, in search of safety for her little family, flying too close to the sun?
SADDLE THE WIND
In a small village in the West Country a baby girl is born into poverty. For little Blanche the future looks bleak.
Her life changes one fateful day when her mother is summoned to The Big House to nurse Marianne, daughter of a wealthy mill-owner. But although she and Marianne grow to care for one another as sisters, sisters they are not. And when Blanche meets and falls in love with Marianne’s intended husband, her struggle not to betray her closest friend threatens to destroy her happiness for ever.
A powerful saga of passion and pain, Saddle The Wind is a thrilling, intensely moving testament to the human spirit, which builds to a spellbinding climax.
