Eva Kershaw thought she would never marry, and is happy living a quiet life with her dear friend Alice. But Alice is ill, and her nephew has thrust himself into their household. Alice's dearest wish is that Eva should not make the same mistakes she did, and she alters her will so that Eva and Gus are strongly compelled to marry. Eva obliges to fulfil her dead friend's wishes. But Gus is not all he seems to be: he is not Alice's kind nephew, but a robber, confidence trickster, and not even Gus Blake. And Eva is in terrible danger...

'This wonderfully written book takes you through Liza's tales of struggle, unhappiness, happiness, laughter and again sadness... I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and was very upset when it came to the end. I am very much looking forward to Lancashire Legacy' -- amazon.co.uk reader from Wales on Lancashire Lass 'Catherine Cookson fans will cheer!' -- Peterborough Evening Telegraph

More About the Author
Anna Jacobs was born in England but emigrated to Australia thirty years ago. Now she and her husband spend part of the year in each country. She's totally addicted to writing, and produces three novels a year. If she slows down, new characters nag her till she tells their stories. And after all, dusting isn't important - story-telling is. She was first published in fiction in 1992 and as of April 2011, she has had 53 novels published, a few under other names. At the moment Anna is writing historical sagas for one UK publisher and modern novels for another, but she doesn't guarantee not to try other genres. Writing is too much fun to be limited in any way. She's been married to her own hero for many happy years, and they have two daughters and one grandson.
Anna also wrote fantasy novels as Shannah Jay, and these books have now been reiussed as Kindle books.

An Avid Reader,
By "feather802" (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Our Eva (Hardcover)
a fairly compelling historical romance. It's the third book in the 'Our' series after Our Lizzie and Our Polly, but it's an interesting read on it's own. It's fairly obvious from the beginning that the two main characters will get to together, that being the bases for any good romance, but the author throws in a few twists along the way.

This review is from: Our Eva (Paperback)
`Our Eva' is a wonderful well-written tale. It's a must for anyone with a desire to experience the community spirit, `simple' pleasures and relentless hardship for people, especially women, who lived in Britain betweens the wars.
