Praise for Jeanne Whitmee:
‘Page-turning vitality.’ Daily Mail
''Virtually unputdownable.’ Peterborough Evening Telegraph
Step into the world of wartime Britain, where love is shaped by distance, and one secret could change everything.
Perfect for fans of Rosie Clarke, Lizzie Lane, Fenella J Miller, Margaret Dickinson or Susanna Bavin.
Young Maryan Brown is hopelessly in love with her employers’ beloved son, the successful and suave Marcus Leigh, heir to a rising fashion empire. He promises her the world, but they can never be together. Instead, he leaves for France. Maryan is left behind, carrying his child and a scandal that could ruin them both.
Determined to give her daughter, Amy, a better life, Maryan marries childhood friend Tom. But their marriage is built on compromise, not love. And when tragedy strikes, Maryan’s life falls apart. She’s left widowed, and Amy is evacuated to the Suffolk countryside for safety.
As war reshapes Britain, Amy grows up far away and in the shadow of secrets. Mother and daughter belong to different worlds now, and distance begins to drive a wedge between them.
Their frayed relationship is worsened when Amy is forced to stay with Maryan after the war. She begins to suspect her mother is keeping things from her, and that something about their lives doesn’t add up.
Amy wants answers, and Maryan must decide whether to keep the secrets that have protected her — or risk the truth that could tear them apart for good.
Spanning decades of hardship, war, and unease, A Mother's Promise is a powerful family saga about mothers and daughters, love and sacrifice, and the cost of keeping secrets.
Please note this book was previously published as This Year, Next Year.
