Hamilton by Catherine Cookson
Maisie doesn't understand why her mother can't love her, but she knows that her life is hard, and deeply unhappy. When the only person she trusts, her stepfather George, leaves, Maisie has no protector, until she begins to escape into her own imagination. She first meets Hamilton as a lonely seven year old, but he has to remain a secret, for what would people think if she reveals her only friend is an imaginary horse? A childhood of neglect leaves her naive and insecure -- and people will always prey on the innocent. But Hamilton lives on in her mind, and perhaps he will be the one to save her!
Dame Catherine Cookson began writing novels when she was forty and has had nearly one hundred books published. In her twenties she moved south to Hastings where, after the tragic loss of four babies and a mental breakdown, she began to use her experiences in the North East as the inspiration for her hugely popular novels. In 1976 she returned to Northumberland with her husband Tom and continued to write almost up to her death in 1998.
