Description
Previously published as The Orphan in the Blue Satin Dress by Weir, Jessica (AUTHOR)
Amid the filth and despair of Victorian London, an orphan discovers the unimaginable: she was once cherished, once loved, and she'll stop at nothing to reclaim what was stolen from her.
Born into the brutal confines of the Lambeth Workhouse, Violet Marsh has known little kindness and even less hope. Orphaned and abandoned at a young age, she clings desperately to a hazy memory: a sunny day in a park, the swish of a delicate blue dress, and the warmth of a woman's hand holding hers. It's the only clue she has to a life lost -- and a mother she aches to remember.
But survival in the workhouse is unrelenting. Alongside her only friend, the sharp-witted and fiercely loyal Joe Willis, Violet endures cruelty, hunger, and heartbreak. When Joe vanishes under sinister circumstances, and Violet becomes the target of the sadistic workhouse master, she knows she has only one choice: run.
Her escape leads her into the harsh streets of Victorian London, where every shadow presents danger and survival requires steel. Alone and destitute, she finds unexpected allies, devastating betrayals, and hidden resilience. Through it all, one question burns within her: who is she truly, and where does she belong?
With help from unexpected quarters, Violet discovers secrets her wealthy family tried to bury -- a mother who loved her, a grandfather who destroyed her, and a chance to reclaim the life she was meant to have. But as she steps into the world of riches and refinement, Violet must prove that her strength, forged in the depths of hardship, is greater than the chains of her past.
Orphan In The Blue Satin Dress is a sweeping tale of courage, love, and redemption -- an unforgettable story about losing everything only to find yourself and the power of faith, family, and resilience. Will Violet finally uncover the truth about her past and create the future she deserves? Or will the scars of her beginnings control her forever?
Perfect for fans of heartrending Victorian romance, this unforgettable tale is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the enduring hope of finding home.
