About this ebook
When two floundering young girls find strength and friendship in one another, the path to happiness finally seems tangible...
Rosie Goodwin's ebook No. 1 bestselling saga, No One's Girl, is sure to bring a tear to your eye, and a smile to your lips. Perfect for fans of Nadine Dorries and Lindsey Hutchinson.
'[A] moving, at times tearjerker of a novel... A beautifully woven tale of tangled lives... An author able to balance emotions, especially love, with skill and wise involvement' - Coventry Evening Telegraph
Jane Reynolds' father dominates her life. Though she seems a devoted daughter, his cruelty has left her afraid to love. After his sudden death she becomes a virtual recluse, leaving her small farm only to sell the fruit and vegetables she grows. But everything changes on a dark, cold night when she finds a young runaway hiding near her cottage. Alice, too, is unloved and in pain, and as the pair become friends, Jane begins to wonder whether she could offer the girl the loving home she's never had. But dark secrets in both their pasts threaten everything Jane hopes for...
What readers are saying about No One's Girl:
'This is the second book of Rosie Goodwin's I have read and all I can say is: I can't wait to read more! Rosie is undoubtedly the best author I have come across recently and I find myself unable to put her books down - even when reaching for the tissues! Her descriptions and ability to tackle difficult subjects is first class. Well done Rosie!'
'I have just finished reading No One's Girl and felt I had to write in to say how much this book surprised and delighted me! Rosie Goodwin has a very rare talent for capturing the voices of all her characters. I do have one warning though, don't take this book into the bath with you unless you are prepared to come out wrinkled like a prune. It is a page turner that you just can't put down and filled with enough surprises to keep you hooked and guessing right up to the very end. All in all, a fantastic read'

The sad thing is a lot of children have and continue to suffer at the hands of people who should have protected them. Ultimately this story is a triumph if only it was the same for more children
