2 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
Jean Fullerton, the RNA-shortlisted queen of the East End, returns with the final nostalgic and heart-warming story of the Brogan family. _____ In the final days of war, only love will pull her through . . . Queenie Brogan wasn't always an East End matriarch. Many years ago, before she married Fergus, she was Philomena Dooley, a daughter of Irish Travellers, planning to wed her childhood sweetheart, Patrick Mahone. But when tragedy struck and Patrick's narrow-minded sister, Nora, intervened, the lovers were torn apart. Fate can be cruel, and when Queenie arrives in London she finds that Patrick Mahon is her parish priest, and that the love she had tried to suppress flares again in her heart. But now in the final months of WW2, Queenie discovers Father Mahon is dying and must face losing him forever. Can she finally tell him the secret she has kept for over fifty years or will Nora once again come between them? And if Queenie does decide to finally tell Patrick, could the truth destroy the Brogan family? ___ What are readers saying about Jean Fullerton? 'I loved it. Easy to read and loveable characters. If you love novels set during WW2 then this is a must read.' 'A must-read story that I'd strongly recommend for readers who enjoy historical family stories.' 'This author never fails to keep you enthralled with each page. Hopefully this isn't the last we see of the Brogans.'

We finish the series with the grandmother of the family, Queenie.
We learn of her past in flashbacks.
When young she was determined to marry Patrick Mahon even though there was enmity between her and his sister Nora, but a family accident meant he ended up going into the church.
But before that Queenie and Patrick were together for a very short time and she has a deep, dark secret that if she reveals could cause a rift in the family now.
