Summary

When Ella Burton takes a job as a lowly cleaner at the glamorous Palace theatre in Swansea, she is surprised by how quickly she takes to the job - it's as if she was born for a life in the theatre.

Unlike Kathleen, who wants her name in lights, backstage is where Ella's heart lies, running the show under the watchful eye of Anthony. It's not long before she realises that she has fallen in love.

But a tragic accident threatens to ruin everything she has worked for, and it seems clear that Ella will have no choice but to accept the man that her father chose for her. Will Ella be forced to put her family before her own happiness?

Love Iris Gower Novels not so much the narrator on this one

Stories by Iris Gower are always charming old country Welsh stories, full of romance and old school values. The large part of her work link the characters together between books so it’s a shame not more of her novels are on here. The narrator reads a little too lightly for my preference, not as serious as the narrator of paradise park so I struggle to invest as much in the character development but if you want to know more of her work it’s worth a listen although I’d recommend paradise park first!
