Synopsis

Disowned and desperate. But can she change her fate? 
Denied 
Seventeen-year-old Constance has had a privileged upbringing in Clapham, with staff to attend to her every need. But her parents have always been cold and distant, never showing her love. 
  
Disowned 
Craving affection, Constance falls into the arms of Albie Jones, the cook’s grandson. But one fateful encounter leaves her ashamed and pregnant, and she is soon shunned from the family home. 
  
Desperate 
Heartbroken and threatened by scandal, Constance is forced to wed Albie and moves to Battersea, where she suffers unforgiving stares and cruel whispers from the neighbours. Trapped in a bitter and loveless marriage without a penny to her name, Constance has no choice but to stay and surrender. Will she ever find freedom – or happiness – again? 
In this riveting saga, Kitty Neale, the Sunday Times bestselling author, masterfully explores the themes of love, betrayal, and the desperate search for happiness. Constance's life, once filled with privilege, spirals into a disaster, mirroring the tumultuous journey of coming to terms with a loveless marriage and societal scorn. 
For fans of Annemarie Brear (The Riverside Maid), Rosie Clarke (Changing Times at Harpers), Lizzie Lane (Tough Times on Coronation Close), Anna Jacobs (Lavender Lane), and Jean Fullerton (A Ration Book Dream).
