A New Dawn For The Mill Girls

Verity's beginnings couldn't predict her future. With perseverance and hard work, she climbed out of the pit she lived in.

Oliver ran the mill that was Verity's inheritance. Attraction was immediate. He was from another class than her. And that caused a problem.

Verity was quite a firecracker. She had many ideas for the Mill and no one could stop her. She looked beyond what was expected. 

I loved Oliver and Verity's relationship. He was the calm. She was the storm. And in the end, this did create conflict.

I couldn't put the book down.  It was a great story.  I loved it.

I received this book from Boldwood Books to review.

A New Dawn for the Mill Girls

West Yorshire 1897

A new mistress for Lockwood Mill.

Verity Lockwood despises life at Far View House, where her father and mill owner, Jebediah Lockwood, drowns his fortune—and his wits—in drink. With debts mounting, whispers spread - how much longer can Lockwood’s Mill survive?

The dark and dirty mills of Yorkshire are no place for a gently bred young woman, but when Verity learns that her father’s ruin threatens not only her home but the livelihoods of the workers who depend on it, she refuses to stand idly by.

Oliver Hardcastle, the mill’s stern and steady manager, is doubtful of Miss Lockwood’s sudden involvement. She’s quiet and unassuming, yet behind her demure exterior lies a sharp mind and as Verity challenges tradition with her bold ideas, she soon earns the respect of the other workers –especially the mill girls— and the reluctant admiration of Oliver himself.

But as their partnership deepens into something more, powerful men begin to take notice. Other mill owners scoff at Verity’s reforms, seeing her as a threat to the order they seek to maintain. And when enemies close in, Verity and Oliver must stand together—not only to save the mill, but to fight for a love neither of them expected.
