Will she follow her head or her heart?

Lancashire, 1842

Sixteen-year-old Bessie works long hours as a weaver in Blackburn, helping to support her family. Meanwhile, her older sister, Peggy, works as an apprentice at the Girls' School, hoping for a more prosperous future as a schoolteacher.

Jennet and Titus Eastwood have always made decisions for their daughters' futures. But as the sisters near adulthood, they are determined to make their own choices. And with temptation in the way, will the girls find love - or infatuation - leads them astray?

Then an unexpected but familiar face arrives in town, and the family's future is threatened. For Bessie and Jennet, a difficult choice must be made - love or family....

This third book in the Mill Lasses series is a very good listen. Continuing the story of the lives of the families introduced in earlier books in the series, concentrates more on the 2 daughters, Katy Sobey once again does a very good job of the narration bringing each character to life with their own Lancashire accents which aren't bad! LOL! Recommended Listen!*****
