Synopsis: In 1950s Wales, a young woman is torn between loyalty to her wayward brother and the fierce yearnings of her own heart . . . Supporting her brother between his spells in prison costs Amanda Clifford more than money. She loses friends—and constantly has to move. But he&’s the only family she&’s ever known. Until, that is, she&’s told that a great aunt has left her a cottage. The only catch: Her brother isn&’t allowed to live there with her. Can she really leave him? Though they both had the disadvantage of growing up in children&’s homes, Amanda has made a life for herself as a teacher—while Roy seems to be an incorrigible thief. When she befriends the cottage&’s current occupier, her hopes grow. This is a place where she could be happy. And perhaps she&’ll find more family in the area. One thing is for certain: She wouldn&’t mind spending more time with Rhys Falconbridge, the elusive and handsome nephew of her tenant . . .
