Louise Allen Livres

Iles Scilly, 1809. Lorsqu'elle reprend conscience, après le naufrage du navire qui la ramène des Indes en Angleterre, Avril est terrifiée. Car l'homme qui l'a sauvée après l'avoir trouvée à demi morte sur la plage ne ressemble guère aux gentils hommes qu'elle a coutume de rencontrer. Et encore moins la horde de marins qui l'entoure, une bande de vauriens dont il est apparemment le chef. Des hommes qui se seraient déjà jetés sur elle s'il n'avait déclaré sa volonté de faire d'elle sa maîtresse. Certes, elle sait qu'ils ne tenteront rien tant qu'elle restera la femme du capitaine. Mais pour combien de temps ? Et ce qu'il leur a dit est-il vrai ? Comment peut-il imaginer qu'elle acceptera de partager son lit ? D'autant qu'il n'ignore pas qu'elle est une lady et qu'il peut obtenir de sa famille une énorme rançon.

When foster mum Louise takes in little Abby, her challenging behaviour soon turns the household upside down. How can one six-year-old unleash such a whirlwind of emotional and physical devastation? Louise is about to discover the darkness of incest, rejection and abuse in Abby's past. The second story in the 'Thrown Away Children' series.

Money isn't enough to paper over the problems when a wealthy family falls apart at a shocking pace. This is a foster-caring experience like no other, and one which tests Louise's emotional strength to the core.

Foster care expert Louise has trouble on her hands from the first moment that 5-year-old Billy Blackthorn comes to stay. It is only as Louise begins to uncover the secrets of Billy's dark past that she begins to understand what made his family 'untouchable'.
