Originally published as The Wrong Side of Happiness.

A STRUGGLE TO FIND LOVE AND HAPPINESS AGAINST THE ODDS

Devon, 1887. Life has not been kind to dairymaid Tresca Ladycott. She can't rely on her flighty farmhand father, Emmanuel, so she relies on herself.

Then comes a devastating blow. Tresca is sacked from the dairy and the pair lose their home. She and her father seek a new life in bustling Tavistock.

More hardship lies ahead. The only work to be found is hard labour on the London and South West Railway. Before long, Emmanual is out of work yet again and Tresca is faced with keeping them both in their tiny garret home.

But is her father to blame this time? Tresca can't help but feel that dashing Irish foreman Connor O'Mahoney had a hand in her father's dismissal.

TORN BETWEEN HER HEAD AND HER HEART

Even so, she finds herself drawn to this mysterious stranger. A battle ensues between her head and her heart, testing Tresca's resolve like never before.

Will she keep fighting for her dreams - even when all hope seems lost?

TANIA CROSSE weaves blissfully human stories with impeccable research, giving her characters all the complexity and colour of real life. Tania is the winner of the Best Romantic Saga in the 60th annual RoNA Awards.

WHAT READERS SAY ABOUT TANIA CROSSE:

Very emotional and powerful . . . I loved it Mrs S. M. Gray

The characters are all very realistic . . . each having their own personalities and faults. The story includes romance, heartbreak, suspense and a hint of crime . . . a very moving read Books 'n' All Promotions

I know you spend many hours researching your subject and this truly shows by the way you bring your stories to life. I can never put the book down I have always enjoyed your books - particularly the Devon ones as it gave us up country folk an insight into Devon life and its social history. Can't wait for the next one now H.

Highly recommend this read. Moments of tragedy are uplifted by a sense of empowering and inspiring strength from the main characters. The narrative is brilliantly authentic and every emotion that is expressed by the characters is mirrored in the reader's heart. Cindy

I now look forward to reading more from this brilliant author. John H.

Tania Crosse is an excellent story teller. She tells a story of how tragedy turns to happiness in the most unexpected way. S.J.
