Blanche’s terrible hurt and reignite the passion for life and
love that has died within her. But Horatia Strong, daughter of the
eldest Strong son, has her sights on grabbing power of the Strong
family dynasty. Ambitious and more ruthless than most women, she is
still desperately in love with her adoptive cousin, Tom, despite
his humble birth. As her brother Nelson succumbs to his opium
habit, Horatia, believes that only Tom can give her the wealth and
strength to take the family businesses to new heights. Will Tom be

of the Strong family? Or will Blanche and Tom get their happy
ending they deserve? Perfect for fans of Dinah Jefferies and Fiona
