Synopsis
Dove Courtney is a tower of strength to her family, always ready to cook Sunday lunch for ten, do the shopping for her frail, elderly mother, throw a Boxing Day party for the neighbours. But when her impecunious brother arrives with his new wife, the 'Child Bride', and clearly plans to move in permanently, Dove puts her foot down. It's a decision that is to cost her her longstanding marriage. But then, perhaps Dove doesn't care too much about that.

Well Kept Secret
Seller: Chapter Two Books, Ammanford, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Signed. First Edition. First Edition. Signed by the Author. Jill Roeās Well Kept Secret is a warm, quietly engaging piece of womenās fiction centred on the hidden stories people carry and the way long-buried truths can reshape relationships. Roe builds the novel around a woman whose carefully ordered life begins to shift when a past she thought she had left behind resurfaces. What follows is a blend of family tension, personal reckoning and the slow, steady courage required to confront what youāve spent years avoiding. Roeās style is gentle but perceptive: sheās good at the small emotional beats ā" the awkward conversations, the private doubts, the moments of unexpected connection. Itās a character-driven novel about honesty, loyalty and the cost of keeping things tucked away for too long, with a satisfying sense of resolution as those secrets finally come into the light.
