Ada Moscrop, a thirty something Ward Sister from Cumbria, nursed a secret dream. It is 1922 and most of the eligible men who could have been a suitor, have either died in the recent war or succumbed to the influenza epidemic if they did make it home. Her dream of becoming a wife and mother had long disappeared. Then along came handsome and dashing Daniel McAuley, from Westmeath in Ireland. A patient on the Men's Surgical Ward at Blackburn Infirmary and just the man that Ada has been waiting for, although she's unaware he has a hidden past. After leaving Ireland because of the constraints of a marriage that was forced upon him and the fear of reprisals after having been a member of a dissident group, Daniel starts working at a Blackburn brewery and fills the gap in Ada's loveless life. But will his hidden past catch up with him to break poor Ada's heart, or like all strong women she will manage to survive it?
