About this ebook
Can love truly stand the test of time…?
Helen Jarvis dreams of escaping the slums of London's Bethnal Green and getting her big break as an actress.
Her plan is simple: marry into aristocracy and become a lady, and then she and her younger sister Etty will finally be able to escape their life of poverty.
Starting her career as a server at Swain's Music Hall, Helen soon rises up the ranks to become an actress on the London stage. But her life changes forever the moment she meets the charming and easy-going Jack Waters...
Although the pair soon fall in love, Helen's dreams of wealth and status begin to put an immense strain on their relationship and she is ultimately forced to choose between her head and her heart.
When Helen decides to marry another man, the wealthy Rudolph Swithin, it appears that her life with Jack is over for good.
But even with the passing of time, Helen and Jack cannot easily forget each other.
In this tale of passion, betrayal and loss, will Helen and Jack's love be able to stand the test of time? Or will their decisions destroy what was once a blossoming romance?
Set against the backdrop of twentieth-century London, Into the Sunlight is a compelling and poignant saga exploring one woman's attempts to navigate the vicissitudes of life, love and ambition.
