Her enthralling story of a terrible injustice and the woman whose life is first torn apart by it, then rebuilt in unexpected ways
Hyacinthe has always been the quiet one: gentle, artistic, never glamorous. Swept off her feet by an ambitious young doctor, she is happy to put her own ambitions as a designer to one side, to become the mother of two lovely
children.
Until the day she must face the fact that Gerald is seeing other women. Distraught, desperate, she goes to his office to seek proof. And because of what happens there on a terrible night, she loses the custody of her children . . .
The enthralling story of a woman whose life is first torn apart by injustice, then rebuilt in unexpected ways.
