Dancing With Strangers

Can anyone come back from devastating rejection, loss and betrayal? When your back is against the wall and your world is falling apart, what would you do? Grace Vincent grows up believing she is unworthy of love. After her mother’s death, she’s passed between households, learning to survive without roots, safety or trust. As an adult, her yearning for connection pulls her towards the wrong man, a choice that shatters everything, where the cost is the loss of her three precious daughters. 

After her disastrous marriage disintegrates in post-war Guernsey, Grace spirals into a world of prisons and the uncertain, seductive streets of Soho. But in the depths of despair, she finds friends and humour in unexpected places. As her mind fractures, every step drags her closer to collapse. Can Grace Vincent find the inner strength to rebuild her life and reunite her family? The odds are stacked against her. 

Inspired by a true story, this novel explores loss, betrayal, revenge, motherhood and the courage it takes to rebuild a life from the ruins of trauma.
