EMBOSS
A future that seems inexplicably intertwined with that of widowed carpenter Matthew Wade and his brood of motherless children. Lydia is magnetically drawn to this very special family, and especially to the strong, honourable man doing everything to keep them together. When dark secrets and society’s expectations threaten their path to happiness, plucky and determined Lydia refuses to give in to despair. Can she follow her dreams of establishing her own independence and find the family she’s always dreamed of ?
