Summary

 The third of five books in the heartwarming Lancashire-based Gibson Family series.

Book three in the heartwarming Lancashire-based Gibson series by beloved saga author Anna Jacobs.

It's 1848 and preparations are underway for Annie Gibson's wedding to Bilsden's wealthy millwoner, Frederick Hallam. But not everyone is as pleased as they are.

Frederick's daughter, Beatrice, is horrified at the prospect of a new attractive stepmother arriving at the house on Ridge Hill. Even Annie's own family feels threatened. The only person who seems pleased is Tom, Annie's brother.

Soon, however, real troubles begin to pile up for the Gibsons. Tom's happiness is jeopardised by the news that he is father to a child he never knew about. Annie's son, William, is devastated to find out that his real father is not the man who brought him up. And even Annie's joy cannot last. Because someone has uncovered the secrets she has fought so hard to keep hidden...

Another 5 stars for book number 3.

At the start of this book I thought the rating might go down slightly as took me a bit longer to get into this one. It however got really good as good as the other books and the situations the family went through had me gripped.

I love the character development in this series and following the journey of the famly as they navigate difficult troubles and situations. Annie and her family are really strong and this book gave me lots of emotion. I am really looking forward to the final two books in the series.

Another 5 stars for book number 3.

From the beginning to the end I couldn’t stop listening to this wonderful story - so very sad in places but a marvellous story and lovely ending. Anna Jacobs is a brilliant writer and Anne Dover always read her books so very well.
