Lakeland Lily
Freda Lightfoot
Synopsis
Lily Thorpe is a spirited, ambitious fisherman’s daughter, desperate to escape
the poverty of her Lakeland home. When the rich Clermont-Read family spoils her
plans, Lily embarks on a personal quest for revenge and marries their only son,
Bertie, a handsome indolent charmer. Rejected by his family, the young couple
soon find themselves battling against the very poverty Lily had hoped to
escape... A twist of fate brings her the freedom she craves, but the price Lily
must pay is vindictive snobbery from Bertie's mother - as well as another far
greater one, finally leading to a passionate affair with Nathan Monroe, a local
steam boat captain. Now it is Lily who must protect herself against the threat
of vengeance and decide who is more important, her husband or her lover.
