The Jarrow Lass

Brought up on her parents' small- holding in Jarrow in the harsh years of the 1870s, Rose dreams of the world beyond the grime of the town, a world she glimpsed at a fairytale wedding on the Ravensworth Estate as a child. Capturing the heart of handsome and respectable steelworker William Fawcett, it seems her dreams will come true. But tragedy strikes, and to save her young family from destitution, Rose must turn to wild John McMullen, refusing to give into loss and despair. The Jarrow Lass is the first novel in the Jarrow Trilogy.
