Product Description

Product Description

In the Swansea of the fifties, there is only one thing for a boy to do when he gets a girl 'into trouble' and that is to marry her - and quickly. Blighted by an unhappy childhood, passionately in love for the first time in his life, Jack can't wait to do the right thing. A happy family of his own is all he ever wanted but not even in his wildest dreams did he envisage a wife like Helen. Beautiful, intelligent and loving, Helen is headstrong enough to defy her family and convention for Jack and, when her father gives them his blessing, their future beckons assured and glittering - until tragedy strikes and tears them apart.


From the Back Cover

In the Swansea of the fifties, there is only one thing for a boy to do when he gets a girl 'into trouble' and that is to marry her - and quickly. Blighted by an unhappy childhood, passionately in love for the first time in his life, Jack can't wait to do the 'right thing'. A happy family of his own is all he ever wanted, but not even in his wildest dreams did he envisage a wife like Helen. Beautiful, intelligent and loving, Helen is headstrong enough to defy her family and convention for Jack and, when her father gives them his blessing, their future beckons assured and glittering - until tragedy strikes and tears them apart.

In this gloriously nostalgic picture of a Welsh community, Catrin Collier combines her fresh, lively style with her ability to create warm and appealing characters.

Catrin Collier was born and brought up in Pontypridd. Her other titles include Hearts of Gold, One Blue Moon, A Silver Lining, All That Glitters, Such Sweet Sorrow, Past Remembering, Broken Rainbows, Spoils of War and Swansea Girls. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars sWANSEA SUMMER, 27 Oct 2009
By Mrs. S. Poulton (Dorset) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This follows on from Swansea Girls which was also an excellent read. From Swansea myself, I lived the story with the girls. Being familiar with the places named, made the book more alive for me. Even if the reader isn't from Swansea, the story line is compelling.
