An inspirational story of resilience, bravery and the strength to succeed, from billion-copy bestselling author Danielle Steel.

It is 1912, and Lady Victoria Oldbrooke is not a conventional English aristocrat’s daughter. Intelligent, beautiful and fiercely independent, Victoria dreams of a world beyond the expectations of society. Eager to embrace education and adventure, she travels the globe with her beloved father, Lord Alfred Oldbrooke.

Her life takes an unforeseen turn aboard the ill-fated Titanic. When tragedy strikes, Victoria’s father entrusts her future to his friend Bert Banning, a wealthy industrialist with a heart as generous as Victoria’s own. Their unexpected union, born of necessity, blossoms into love and deep respect.

On the sudden death of her husband, Victoria inherits and assumes the running of the Manchester textile mills. As a female owner, ahead of her time, she must defy convention as she encounters threats of violence, strikes and rioting from a disgruntled workforce.

Lady Victoria must find the courage to stay strong in her self-belief, overcome the prejudice of her peers and steer the mills through the tumultuous times of a changing world before her enemies destroy all she has fought for . . .
