- Adele Parks MBE

The second instalment in the Wax Fruit Trilogy, chronicling the triumphs and trials of the Moorhouse family in Victorian Glasgow.

The Moorhouses face a new wave of uncertainty as romantic entanglements and shifting fortunes complicate the family hierarchy.

Phoebe's engagement is thrown into doubt by financial ruin. Mungo's surprise marriage into the aristocracy brings prestige - and unexpected pressures. Meanwhile, Bel wants to ensure the security of the Moorhouse family and urges her brother-in-law David to find a suitable match.

As personal desires clash with family duty, the Moorhouses must decide what truly matters: love, loyalty or legacy.
