THE NEW SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
Marrying for love was all well and good, but it wasn't always enough
Nuneaton, 1875.
Lily Moon, the local miner's daughter, spends her days as a parlour maid for Lord and Lady Bellingham at Oakley Manor, and lives a happy life. But one day, everything changes when she becomes lady's maid to the Bellingham's daughter, Arabella, who is pregnant with an illegitimate child.
When Arabella suddenly disappears and Lily is left holding the baby, it is only Louis Bellingham, the handsome son and heir of the estate, who shows any interest in the child. Soon a friendship forms between him and Lily, or perhaps more than a friendship if village gossips are to be believed.
Could Lily dare to believe that she might be more than just a parlour maid?
