1. The Winter Widow – York, England, 1852.
When Caroline Lawson becomes a young widow, her grief is deepened by the loss of her farm. A rash decision to travel to York to find work doesn’t turn out as she expected. Alone and vulnerable, she is unprepared for the harshness of the narrow dirty streets. With money running low and work difficult to come by, Caroline fears she will soon have no choice but to knock on the dreaded workhouse door.
However, she is not without hope, and with her new friends, feisty Trixie, and her two little sisters and the unique Mussy, Caroline learns she is stronger than she realised and that even in the worst of times, friendship is all you need.
Only Trixie and Mussy each have their own secrets, ones which will test their newly formed bonds with Caroline.
When tragedy strikes again, and secrets are revealed, Caroline knows she must protect her friends and get them out of the dangerous city to the countryside she loves, but will she find there the happiness she once had?
Or has the past destroyed any dreams for a happy future?
2. Whispers of Spring – 1853.

With the steadfast support of their friends Mussy and Jacob, they brave the challenges of agricultural life, drawing strength from their unity and determination.
Amidst this toil, Caroline finds herself caught in a delicate dance with Max Cavendish, the charismatic land agent of Melliton Abbey estate. Though Max’s affections are evident, Caroline remains hesitant to confront her own feelings, unwilling to risk the fragile balance of their friendship.
Trixie also must deal with concerns of the heart. Will the flirtations with Thomas Cavendish lead to more, or will her past destroy everything?
However, their pleasant summer is shattered with the arrival of Max’s cunning cousin, Wayland, a manipulative gentleman with a penchant for destruction. When Caroline refuses to yield to Wayland’s demands, he sets out to sabotage Caroline and Trixie’s happiness, unleashing a series of damaging events that spiral out of control, leaving devastation in its wake.
With their future once more uncertain, Caroline and Trixie must summon every ounce of strength and resilience to overcome the trials that threaten them.
Will they rise again to find contentment and safety, or will they buckle under the strain?
