A Valley Dream: Book 1 in the uplifting new Backshaw Moss series

1935. At thirty-six, Bella Porter is dependent on her abusive cousin, acting as an unpaid servant. When a kind relative leaves her a house in the village of Backshaw Moss, Thomas tries to take it from her, but she defies him and grasps this chance of a new start in Lancashire.\r\n\r\nIt is not going to be easy, though. The house is on the edge of a slum and in a state of disrepair, let out as flats. As kind people help her find her feet, however, her confidence grows and when she meets struggling, widowed father-of-three Ryan, she begins to hope she may find the happy family shes always dreamed of.\r\n\r\nShes offered partial help with her renovations by the local council who are planning to clear up the slums, but other landlords will do anything to avoid costly improvements and protect their profits. And when Thomas follows her, still after the inheritance, not only is Bellas newfound happiness threatened but also her life. Can her new friends help her rid herself of her tormenter once and for all and finally achieve her valley dream?\r\n\r\nReaders love Anna Jacobs Birch End Series!\r\n\r\nAmazing - 5 STARS\r\n\r\nThank you, Anna, for the pleasure you give in all your books - 5 STARS\r\n\r\nAnother brilliant, hard-to-put-down book - 5 STARS\r\n\r\nCant wait for the next instalment - 5 STARS\r\n\r\nA real page turner, I cant wait to read the next one - 5 STARS\r\n\r\nAnother triumph for Anna Jacobs - 5 STARS\r\n\r\nBRILLIANT READ - 5 STARS
