Hooks & Eyes

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 favour to an old acquaintance, he’ll make an exception … for Mary.

As their paths cross, can they build the foundations of a happy life together? Or will a web of lies and deceit be the undoing of them?
