Product Description

At eleven years of age, Albertina Listerman loses her parents in a terrible accident. At twenty-one, she experiences further tragedy when her half-brother commits suicide, having squandered the family fortune.

Robbed of her very last penny, Ally is thrust into a world of hardship for which she is ill-prepared. Her salvation comes in the form of Jack Fossett, a kind lad who takes pity on this beautiful, bedraggled girl, and welcomes Ally into his heart. But Jack's mother Flo is less convinced, and time must pass and secrets must be revealed before Ally and Flo see eye to eye - particularly when they discover that Ally is not as destitute as she thought...

Brilliant, a real page turner.
I've never read Lynda Page before but after reading this I'm hooked. A real find. Could not put it down, read most on the loo I was that desperate to find out what happened to Ally.

At the Toss of a Sixpence
This is the second book that i am reading and it is really good.
I have never read any books before that you don't want to put down.

Well done Lynda and i hope you keep them coming.
