When Barry indulges her passion for ballroom dancing, the gap seems to be filled - until she meets Philip Golding. He sweeps Grace off her feet, showing her what she believes is a better way of life. But as he draws her into a web of deceit, she discovers that all that glitters is not gold.

Grace must confront her past and learn to forgive those who have hurt her in order to find the strength to move forward and build a new life for herself and her children. This is a powerful and emotional story that will leave readers feeling inspired and uplifted.
