Synopsis:

Rosie Farley is no more than a child when her mother dies during the war. Left to the less-than-tender mercies of her father Cole and her brutal half-brothers Seth and Norman, she sees the arrival of housekeeper Heather Farley as a possible replacement mother and savior. But when Thomas Farley comes looking for his sister several years later, he discovers Heather has left the Parkers in mysterious circumstances, abandoning her small son. As the terrible truth about Heather's disappearance comes to light, Rosie is compelled to leave the family and make her way in the world. And if that means being imposed as the daughter of a murderer, that's a risk she'll have to take. Rosie is the compelling story of how love and tenderness can grow, even in the most barren ground.

Readers can connect online with book titles, helping them find new homes, and support reusing and re-loving books that are affordable. At Bookworms you’ll find cheap books, hidden gems and even some lost treasures. We have a passion for sustainability, being eco-friendly, eco-conscious and we aim to incorporate that into all that we do.
