Latham soon proves possessive and controlling, and when Julia is reacquainted with troubled war hero Martin Lee-Trafford, the attraction between them grows to love. But when Julia gives birth to a child, she faces a heart-wrenching decision - for if she runs away with Martin, she'll be forced to leave her beloved son with Latham...
Janet is an Australian, who was born and raised in Dorset, UK. Happily married since her late teens, she and her husband migrated to Australia with the first two of her family of five, after her husband finished his term in the Royal Navy. She became interested in writing when the kids grew up, because she thought she might be able to write a story as readable as some of the authors she was reading.
