From the Back Cover
In the Swansea of the fifties, there is only one thing for a boy to do when he gets a girl 'into trouble' and that is to marry her - and quickly. Blighted by an unhappy childhood, passionately in love for the first time in his life, Jack can't wait to do the 'right thing'. A happy family of his own is all he ever wanted, but not even in his wildest dreams did he envisage a wife like Helen. Beautiful, intelligent and loving, Helen is headstrong enough to defy her family and convention for Jack and, when her father gives them his blessing, their future beckons assured and glittering - until tragedy strikes and tears them apart.
In this gloriously nostalgic picture of a Welsh community, Catrin Collier combines her fresh, lively style with her ability to create warm and appealing characters.
Catrin Collier was born and brought up in Pontypridd. Her other titles include Hearts of Gold, One Blue Moon, A Silver Lining, All That Glitters, Such Sweet Sorrow, Past Remembering, Broken Rainbows, Spoils of War and Swansea Girls.
