OUR FAIR LILY
OUR DEAR DAISY

As the much doted-on daughter of the local doctor Violet Stroud had a comfortable, happy childhood - despite a distinct lack of love from her cold-hearted mother. But when her father unexpectedly dies, Violet's life is turned upside down. As secrets about the family come to light, Violet finds herself homeless and with no one to turn to apart from Edie, the family's gentle and loving housekeeper.

Violet and Edie set out on their own to run a café by the docks and life, while humble, starts to settle down. Perhaps, Violet may find happiness again and even...love? But when Violet's brother, Oliver, comes back on the scene, chaos follows at every turn, and while walking home alone one night, something unthinkable happens. With her contented existence and her chance at true love under threat, Violet must summon all the strength she has to put her life back together. Will she ever find the peace that she so desperately desires?

About the author

Before becoming a writer, I was a Placement Support Worker and foster carer, and worked in the social services department after completing a teacher training course. Many children have joined my family over the years. I still live in Nuneaton, where many of my books are set, with my husband, Trevor, and our beloved dogs.

I was thrilled to discover that I'd become one of the top 250 most-borrowed library authors in the UK, and would like to thank all of you who have taken out my books over the last few years! I love meeting my readers and am always pleased to hear from you. I hope you will all continue to get in touch and please do sign up for my newsletter!

I enjoyed this one too. I felt there could be a sequel with Violet's children, there's plenty scope for history repeating itself.
I always enjoy listening to Charlie Sanderson's narrations - Thankfully she's recorded many Authors in this genre to keep me happy! Sometimes I purchase from Audible and some are on Libby.

This is the kind of book worth reading if you just want to escape. It’s nicely written and has a good story flow. It’s not high brow and the plot is a bit cliched, but it’s great escapism. It’s a classic romance novel which is set in the 1800/1900s - an unrequited English love with high drama. Worth a read if you just want to relax and switch off.
