About this listen

 Orphaned young, H is sent to live with her doting aunt in London. H’s life is a happy one until her lecherous cousin robs her of her innocence and the plague takes away the city and the people she loves. H is cast out – friendless, pregnant and destitute – into the rapidly emptying streets of London under quarantine. Forced to fend for herself, she is determined to gain back the life she lost. H will face a villain out for revenge, find love in the most unexpected places and overcome a betrayal that she never could have foreseen. Weathering it all, can H charm, or scheme, her way to the life of freedom and independence that she longs for?©2020 Sarah Burton (P)2020 Bolinda Publishing Fiction Genre Fiction Historical Fiction Literary Fiction Thought-Provoking Inspiring Feel-Good England

it has been a long time since I devoured a book as obsessively as this...i listened in every spare minute i had, even in 5 minute drives to the supermarket. I was completely engrossed. The writing and narration were original and brilliant. A classic rags to riches tale, all I can say is, you will not be disappointed. I promise.

Un-put downable

Really lovely story ups and downs. Lovely that it was set in the 1660s makes it a different read. Tbh I wish there was another one to see what H gets up to next

Just really great
