Overview: A country manor, a war-torn country, and a makeshift family, just fighting to survive on the home front.
Susan Beckett’s mission is simple: unconditionally protect the innocent children orphaned by the devastating WW2 bombings in Bristol. Relocated to the grand Hatherley House in the Wiltshire countryside, she battles daily with the estate’s cantankerous patriarch, Lord Hatherley, while tirelessly seeking foster homes for her scarred charges—including a mute six-year-old boy and a severely traumatized little girl.
But Susan’s fiercest battle is actually internal – as she finds it hard to resist her secret, growing love for Stephen Audley, the estate’s handsome and wealthy heir.
Meanwhile, a dark shadow threatens their sanctuary. Judy, the orphanage’s indispensable live-in nurse, harbours a criminal past that a blackmailing former colleague is dangerously close to exposing to the authorities.
Torn between her working-class roots and Stephen’s intimidating aristocratic world, Susan must decide whether to run from her deep-seated insecurities or stay to fight for her makeshift family and the man her heart wants above all others…
