About this listen

The second book in the brand new Backshaw Moss series from million-copy best seller Anna Jacobs.

Lancashire, 1930s. When her mother dies, leaving her an old sewing box and a clue to her father's identity, 22-year-old Maisie Bassett is determined to make a fresh start.

Changing her name and moving to the small town of Rivenshaw, she finds a respectable job in a grocery store. But unwanted attentions from a man at her new church make life increasingly difficult - until the shy, handsome Gabriel Harte comes to her rescue.

Then she receives an inheritance from a distant relative and her world is turned upside down. The home she's always dreamed of may finally be hers - if she can keep it safe from a grasping slum landlord. With Gabriel's help, can Maisie untangle the secrets of her past and secure her future?

Curl up with this heartwarming listen from the Queen of the Rural Saga - perfect for fans of Dilly Court, Rosie Goodwin and Katie Flynn.

Enjoyed the storyline although I found it unbelievable as the story continued towards the end but the narrator although ok while reading the characters has a funny way of sounding words. I had to keep telling myself to ignore it but it was annoying. Will remember not to listen to anything else read by her.

Really enjoyed this book, well up to Anna Jacobs' usual high standards. Just waiting for the third book in the trilogy, as this one felt as though it ended on a cliff edge.

A great follow-up top to 'A Valley Dream'

Narration was good. Good story. Couldn't stop listening. Always rely on Anna Jacobs for a good book

Good story

I really took to Gabriel in the first book so I am really glad he got his own story in this book. Maisie was a grate character and it was clear from the moment they met she and Gabriel were suitable for each other.

I loved the way they supported each other through the story and it was also good to see Bith back and working on the good side this time. Again I really liked him in this book and could tell from the first book he was not happy with the work he'd had to do in book 1. Again like in all the other books based in the vally it was grate to see all our old friends supporting them as well. Looking forward to book 3 and meeting the third character who's going to inherit the third house. Love Gwinnith Gabriel's mother so glad she's also getting a story.

Tried to persevere but just couldn’t stand the narration which was a shame as I’m sure it spoilt a good story plus I wasted my money

Dreadful narration
