About
Two sisters. One promise. But will their bond survive the test of time?
1936. After their father loses their family fortune, and their mother locks herself away, sisters Grace and Clementine are left to raise themselves in a grand London house that is slowly falling apart. Each of them is determined to one day restore their money and the family name and makes a promise to do just that.
Clementine dreams of being a celebrated ballerina who will tour the world. She is adamant she won't put her fate into a man's hands but take charge of it herself instead.
While Grace sees security in a good marriage. Their new eligible American neighbour - with wealth, charm, and looks - seems like the perfect match.
But when Clementine falls unexpectedly in love, it throws both sisters' lives into turmoil, and forces each of them to ask if they are prepared to break their promise for a chance at true love... Olivia Horrox studied English Literature and Creative Writing at Bath Spa University, and wrote her dissertation on post-WW1 societal changes in The Great Gatsby which has inspired her own writing. Olivia now works as a Senior
Marketing & PR Manager at Simon & Schuster Children's Books. She lives in West London with her husband and a very cantankerous cat called Coco. A beautifully imagined historical novel about the bond between sisters and a changing world. Author is based in London, United Kingdom. Perfect for fans of Santa Montefiore, Kate Morton and Lucinda Riley.
