Love makes you do things you never thought you were capable of…

Margo and Richard’s love affair was fiery, forbidden and all-consuming, but ultimately doomed. When it imploded, Margo was left broken.

Margo never spoke a word about the man who abandoned his young family so easily. She’s forged a new life which she’s determined to live her own way, despite the disapproval of her daughters.

Her eldest, Rachel longs to escape the responsibility of caring for Sandcove, the crumbling house where she and her sisters were left to run wild.

Dreamy Imogen should be getting ready for her wedding but is feeling a dangerous connection to a beautiful stranger.

And the youngest of the three, wild, passionate Sacha, is carrying a secret from their past that will shake the family to its core…

The Garnett Girls is the Sunday Times bestselling debut which asks whether children can ever be free of the mistakes of their parents.
