Product Description
1930, the Isle of Dogs. 20-year-old Lily Bright works long hours on a market stall, selling furniture and bric-a-brac to make ends meet. When a handsome stranger turns up at the stall in search of a bargain, it's love at first sight. Swept off her feet, Lily falls head over heels for the debonair Charles Grey - only to discover, too late, that he's a bigamist and trader in stolen goods. Trapped, pregnant, Lily turns for comfort to her childhood friend Ben James, a former lorry driver who is now a successful businessman. With World War II looming, Lily comes to realize that it's Ben she really loved all along. Will she ever find a way to overcome her mistakes, seize control of her own destiny - and win her true love's heart?

I came across this author quite by chance, and I really enjoyed reading this book. Coming from the north of England I have nothing in common with the east end of London or the Ilse of Dogs and knew very little about it. I now want to go there and see the place for myself, as Carol Rivers descriptions are superb. Also her historic references are extremely accurate.
The story is set in the 1930s about a lovely young woman just setting out on life's trail. She puts her family first regardless of her own deprevations. Her only hope is that the rich and handsome man she met at the market stall where she works on Saturdays would come back and sweep her off her feet and take all her worries away.(life is`nt like that though is it?)
The story is warm, endearing and a great read. Carol Rivers is now on my favorite author list, can`t wait to read more of her wonderful descriptive stories.Lily of Love Lane

I'd never heard of Carol Rivers until I got 2 books in a bookshop for a bargain bundle price so I chose two and started reading that very day and what can say? I absolutely LOVED the book, read it within about 3 days and couldn't wait to read more...
Fantastically written, gripping and totally addictive - well worth a read. You will love it.
