WORLDS APART, BUT DRAWN TO EACH OTHER...
Their lives could not have been more different. Jenny was the girl from the meat shop, born into squalor and defeat. Paul Tunstall was a soldier and a gentleman, arrogant and charming, with his silver-light eyes and boyish smile.
And yet from the moment they met there was a spark between them - and their separate lives of pain and loneliness seemed to beckon to each other.
Will love win out, against all odds?
