galore! But Sam has to wait for his Grandad. Trying to hurry him
up, Sam tells Grandad all the other kids have gone to the park...
and all the local dogs... and all the zoo animals! Only when they
finally arrive does Grandad see Sam was telling the truth - and
both of them get stuck in having fun on their snow day!
BRISTOL 1943 and life for the Tobacco Girls isn't getting any
easier...Bridget Milligan has donned a uniform and joined the
nursing services where she becomes intrigued with the miracles of

impossible to hope that everything will come out right in the end?
Phyllis Harvey is still serving in Malta where she sees the
casualties of war first hand. Finally it seems like Phyllis is
blessed with true in love, but fate can sometimes be a rocky road
and nothing is that certain. Maisie Miles is left holding the home
front at the tobacco factory but with the sudden death of her
grandmother finds herself once more alone in the world. However,
thanks to a substantial inheritance, she is able to extend a
helping hand to a friend in desperate need. There are tears and
laughter, goodbyes and new arrivals along with the hope that new
beginnings are not far over the horizon. Praise for Lizzie Lane: 'A
gripping saga and a storyline that will keep you hooked' Rosie

friendship and a must-read for all saga fans.' Jean Fullerton

with life-affirming friendship, drama, and choices that are as
relevant today as they were then.' Catrin Collier 'If you want an
exciting, authentic historical saga then look no further than
Lizzie Lane.' Fenella J Miller
'Beautifully written and both heartbreaking and heartwarming'
Jessica RedlandIsabel, Izzy to her friends, has got nothing left to
lose when she makes the bravest decision of her life. A month
living under canvas on the Yorkshire Moors with five strangers
wouldn't normally be her idea of a good time, even if there is
prize money to be won at the end of it, but she's all out of
options. Joining her in this wild goose chase, being filmed for a
TV show, are farmer Seb, whose marriage is creaking but who is
desperate not to lose his family. Sheltered Ruth who needs an
opportunity to show she can make her own decisions. Glamorous
socialite Kanga, who has been living a lie. American Junior who has
his own secret that has led him there. And last but not least,
mysterious and brooding Mac, who Izzy can't help but be drawn to.
As the fickleness of nature tests them all to their limits, this
disparate group come together to face the challenge. But when Izzy
finally tells them the truth that has brought her out on the Moors,
will that be the end of their adventure, or the beginning of her
future? Because what Izzy really needs is a place to call home, and
someone to share it with could be even better... Praise for Jane

book.'
