IN THE AFTERMATH OF THE GREAT WAR, CAN THEY FIND HAPPINESS?
They were called the Daffodil Girls, spirited and bright, enduring, loving and dancing their way through the gay and desperate twenties.
April, who married the tortured and sexually suspect David Daker, convinced she could blot out his memories of the trenches.
May, pregnant by her handsome music-hall star husband, who refused to settle down and become a family man.
March, loved and betrayed by the man who had fathered her child, and who still wanted her, in spite of everything.
WHAT WILL THE FUTURE HOLD IN STORE FOR THEM?
The Daffodils of Newent is the second book in the Rising Family sequence and is followed by Bluebell Windows and Rosemary for Remembrance. The story began in A Scattering of Daisies.
