To Catch A Dream
Autor Mary Wooden Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 mai 2015
Young Bridie O'Hara is torn away from her native Ireland by her father when he is forced to flee the wrath of the freedom fighters he has betrayed.
Years later, violated by those who should protect her, and deceived by her lover, the dashing gypsy Seamus Finney, Bridie struggles to find her way in Victorian England.
That is until Bridie meets Will Hadler, a kind, hard-working miner, whose love for her knows no bounds. He rescues Bridie from working the streets of Sheffield and offers her a chance of happiness. Together they set up home in Breckton, a small mining town nestled between Leeds and York.
There Bridie meets and befriends Issy who works as a cook for the rich and powerful Harvey family. Issy, a strong young woman, triumphs over adversity, but Bridie, and Bridie's daughter Bridget, have a much greater struggle on their hands . . .

Notă biografică
Born the thirteenth child of fifteen to a middle-class mother and an East End barrow boy, Mary Wood's childhood was a mixture of love and poverty. Throughout her life Mary has held various posts in office roles, working in the Probation services and bringing up her four children and numerous grandchildren, step-grandchildren and great-grandchildren. An avid reader, she first put pen to paper in 1989 whilst nursing her mother through her last months, but didn't become successful until she began self-publishing her novels in 2011. Her novels include An Unbreakable Bond, In Their Mother's Footsteps, Time Passes Time and Proud of You.
