Product Description

Product Description

To escape her possessive and drunken step-father, Kate is sent away from teaming Jarrow to work on the Ravensworth Estate. Swapping a life of hardship for this rural idyll, she is soon attracting the attention of charming, headstrong Alexander, a distant cousin of the Earl. Kate dares to dream of a future with Alexander; but when their love is consummated in one stolen night of passion those dreams are shattered. With her lover forced into an unwanted betrothal, Kate discovers she is pregnant and must return to face the wrath of her step-father and a bleak future. But she refuses to give up hope that one day Alexander might return to claim her and their love child. A CHILD OF JARROW (the second novel in the Jarrow Trilogy) is a poignant and compelling story with an engaging heroine who will steal your heart.

Thoroughly enjoyed all 3 books in the Jarrow series, well worth reading. I was captivated in all three and could not wait to start the next one.

Return to Jarrow 28 Dec 2011

This trilogy of books is a lovely read which gives an insight into how it was living in Jarrow in the early years, the hardships of one family and how they manage to get by day after day, a great holiday read, wanted the series to continue after the third book.

Having thoroughly enjoyed the first of the Jarrow Tirlogy I embarked upon a reading of this second story with enthusiasm and was not disappointed.
I was gripped from the start. It was necessary to repeat some of the first story (I suppose that this was in case the reader had not read or perhaps remembered the first.} This was not done immediately but skilfully inserted at an appropriate point.
If you have read the first book and enjoyed it you will be most interested to see how Kate continued her life.
It would be a pity to reveal the plot so all I can say is that it is a well crafted, truly authentically historical in detail and a gripping yarn in a similar style to Catherine Cooksons.
