Publisher's Synopsis
To start again, Mary must leave the past behind . . . With no husband and two small children to care for, survival is Mary's only concern. She needs money . . . and can't be too choosy about the job. Mr. Wetherby doesn't need any more workers for his expanding business, but as a favor to an old acquaintance, he'll make an exception . . . for Mary. He wants her. She needs him. Can they build the foundations of a happy life together? Or will a web of lies and deceit be their undoing? Inspired by a true story, Hooks & Eyes begins an epic saga of one family's trials, tragedies, and triumphs as they seek their fortune in Victorian-era England.
