Heart of the Home

The latest in the Badgers Brook saga Meriel Evans had worked in her father's estate agency since leaving school and she was happy there, but at twenty-nine she knew she had to make a move. She found a place at the Ace Estate Agency but realised at once that the owner, George Dexter, and her father knew and disliked each other. Though neither would explain why. She was attracted to the house called Badgers Brook and determined to stay, even though she would miss her parents and her lifetime love, Leo Hopkins. The quarrel between Dexter and her father increased to a bitterness that resulted in secrets from the past being revealed, and almost destroyed her family. Especially when she learned that Leo had known about them all along, and hadn't confided in her. The truth about the past eventually strengthens Meriel; and the secrets, once told, were no longer dark.Thompson, Grace is the author of 'Heart of the Home ', published 2006 under ISBN 9780727875556 and ISBN 0727875558.
