Pregnant and grieving, twenty-something Tiggy arrives at the remote house of her friend Julia in the middle of a snowstorm. All alone, having lost her mate in a tragic accident, Tiggy finds refuge with Julia’s warm and chaotic family. Nurtured and loved at last, Tiggy begins to live again as she eagerly awaits the birth of her son. But nearly thirty years later, when her son is about to become a father himself, the next generation discovers that there are some secrets of the past that still live on.
Marcia Willett’s early
life was devoted to the ballet, but her dreams of becoming a ballerina ended
when she grew out of the classical proportions then required. She had always

decision she has never regretted. She lives in a beautiful, wild part of Devon
with her husband, where she loves to be visited by her son and his young
family.View all by Marcia Willett
