They called it Black Friday when the factory closed. Whole families living in the slums of Glasgow during the Depression felt the sting of despair. Vicky Devine's father, George, was devastated. But young Ken Blacklaws had steel in his veins: "I'm going to make something of my life," he would tell her with passion. Maybe that's why Vicky loved him. Beautiful Vicky, her love gained strength and defiance in the midst of hardship. As Ken ruthlessly fought his way out of poverty, his ambition knew no bounds. For in his lifetime, he would break the law and Vicky's heart, but never could he break her spirit.

emma-blair-sweethearts.jpgRead Emma Blair's latest paperback, Sweethearts, published in November 2007.

Here's a brief synopsis.....

For Lexa and Cordelia Stewart, the late 1930s bring changes that neither could have dreamed of.  For as well as the onslaught of war, the death of their father leaves them ill-equipped to run the family business.  Cordelia falls recklessly in love with Joe Given, who is not only married but is looking elsewhere.  Meanwhile, Lexa finds brief happiness with William until the war cruelly postpones their wedding.

Will the tarot card message read by her grandmother years ago finally come true?  Will a 'cruel misunderstanding' stand in the way of Lexa and her longed-for marriage?
