About the Book:
Martha Lowery flees her Irish family’s home in Hexham with little more than baking skills and a fierce will to survive. Haunted by the dark secrets of her childhood and a cruel father, she pursues work as a cook and a cleaner and hopes only for safety. When she meets John “JB” Sutherland, their passion leads to a child born out of wedlock—a scandal that could destroy them both. As tensions simmer, whispers grow louder. Someone close to the Sutherlands knows the truth about Martha’s father and the shame she has fought so hard to escape... but Martha is not alone.
