Alone in the world, will she have the courage to follow her heart?

Escape to the world of the Staffordshire Potteries, from the award-winning writer Margaret Kaine.

When her loving but strict parents pass away, twenty-one-year-old Megan Creswell is left penniless and alone – except for a single mysterious heirloom from her mother. But for the first time, Megan also has the freedom to explore who she really is.

After a fortuitous turn of events, Megan is taken under the wing of the wealthy Celia Bevington, and discovers that there is more to life than working as a pottery painter in the local factory. She comes out of her shell, daring to wear makeup, modern clothes, and go out dancing. She even starts stepping out with a steady local man – but Megan's head is turned when she meets a dashing American visitor.

When secrets from her family’s past turn her world upside-down, can she find the bravery to live life her own way?

This heart-wrenching and engrossing historical romance from the award-winning writer Margaret Kaine is perfect for fans of Kitty Neale, Dilly Court, and Glenda Young.
