The Watermill Maid
(2025)(The second book in the Secrets of Stonehaven series)
A novel by Daisy Carter
A hidden locket. A long-buried secret. And a brave young woman’s fight to protect her family. Can Betsy uncover the truth and still find love?
After losing her beloved mother, Betsy Dawson is determined to care for her younger brother and help her father run their watermill in Stonehaven, on the rugged Welsh coast.
When she discovers a long-hidden secret among her mother’s belongings, it sets off a chain of events that threatens everything she holds dear.
Tragedy strikes, and rumours about the past begin to surface, casting doubt on all she thought to be true.
The mystery deepens when the wealthy Bevans return to nearby Brynowen Manor. Catherine Bevan, elegant and suspicious, will stop at nothing to protect her family’s reputation.
However, Betsy forms an unlikely friendship with the impetuous Arabella Bevan, Lord Bevan’s granddaughter, drawing her into a world far from her humble roots.
Betsy soon finds herself torn between two very different worlds: the watermill and her close-knit community, where she knows she can always rely on her friends, Arthur and Nancy, and the grand manor house, where she increasingly spends more time, when Arabella asks her to become her lady’s maid.
As danger closes in and powerful figures are intent on bringing ruin to both families, Betsy’s loyalty and courage will be pushed to the limit.
Can one brave young woman stand firm against the tides of deceit and stay one step ahead of danger to save the people dearest to her?
And will Betsy ever truly know who she is and where she belongs without turning her back on love?
The Watermill Maid is a gripping, heart-warming saga romance full of emotion, mystery, and resilience. Perfect for readers who love spirited heroines, family drama, and stories of love against the odds.
Another feel-good historical family saga by Daisy Carter, the popular bestselling author of The Narrowboat Orphans, The Pit Girl''s Scandal, and more. Fans of Dilly Court, Lindsey Hutchinson, and Rosie Goodwin will adore this thrilling and unforgettable story.
