A wonderful family saga, set in Liverpool which will appeal to fans of Maureen Lee.
Torn between her family and a last chance at love...
Raising three boys and running the Arcadia Hotel almost single handed are enough to keep widow Kitty Ryan busy. She has no time for romance -- unless it's in the form of a rare evening out at the local picture house in the company of Mr Fred Astair.
Then along comes John Mcleod, bringing with him a second chance at happiness. However, as Hitler grows too big for his boots and 'Peace in our time' becomes an empty refrain, Kitty finds her sons...

Rosie Kilshaw is only 15 when her mother Violet is killed in a tragic accident, but as the oldest of her siblings, she vows to keep her family together, no matter what the sacrifice. But as distant family members begin to resurface into their lives, Rosie quickly realizes that there is a lot more to parenting than she first thought. And when her estranged aunt Amelia decides to take them in, she will have a difficult choice to make.
