Description
Kate Bratton dreams of more. It’s 1914, and her life is mapped out ahead of her: continue working as a maid in the beautiful Woodicombe House, settle down with Luke, the gardener and, of course, start a family.
Desperate to run away in search of adventure, Kate’s plans are curtailed by the arrival of the Russell family at Woodicombe House. Tasked with becoming a ladies-maid for their daughter, Naomi, Kate gets a glimpse of the other side of life. Little does she know that all families have secrets, no matter their standing.
Will Kate return to the safety of her life before the Russell’s arrival? Or will the handsome Ned Russell turn her head?

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and found the story to flow well. There were many twists and turns that built up to the final conclusion. Very enjoyable and definitely recommended.
Lovers of historical fiction will enjoy this book.
It has all the ingredients.
Set just before the outset of World War 1 .
A lovely country house in the depths of Devon hosts a family holiday of the rich family the Russell,s. Amongst the party are their twin grown up children Naomi and Ned.
Added into the mix are the below stairs staff Mabel Britton and her two daughters Edith and Kate..
Kate is restless and wants more from life and due to several events finds her life inextricably entangled in the lives of the Russell’s through their son and daughter. But will it end well for Kate or will events occur to end her dreams,
