Synopsis: |
It's 1962 and six school friends are eager to embark on their life's journeys. The four girls are all madly in love with desirable Crawford. However, it's snooty Angela who is determined to win him in the end. Over the years each will be surprised at the traumatic and sometimes wonderful twists and turns their paths will follow.Freda, at the age of nineteen, is abused and gets pregnant by her vicious stepfather. Robin, her soul mate from nursery times and now her partner in their flourishing hairdressing business, comes to her rescue by marrying her, although they both know he's gay. Freda has to accept that Robin has a lover and that Crawford can never be hers. And Crawford is devastated when he realises that Freda, the only woman he will ever truly love, will now never be his. Freda has the ever-faithful Hannah to support her, but nothing anyone can say will make things right.Then when Freda's twins are seven years old, a chance meeting with Crawford brings a potentially life-changing dilemma. Can she finally put herself first, risking the happiness her children have found with the ever-faithful Robin, or should she simply now accept her lot in life.The consequences of her decision could change all of their lives forever.Millie Gray once again brilliantly recreates the atmosphere of the era with all the hardships and struggles as well as the fun, warmth and humour of everyday life. A charming, heartbreaking and ultimately uplifting novel of enduring friendship and love, and the lengths that true friends will go to for each other. |
