It is 1910. Grace Ellis’ family is struggling in rural poverty in a small town in Lancashire. Then one evening her mother Dora leaves her incapacitated husband, Arthur, leaving them to fend for themselves. The family disintegrates and Grace is reduced to penury.
Grace has inherited her mother’s strength and determination. She goes out to work and looks after her father and manages to start her own cosmetic business.
She meets Daniel, heir to the Goodman fortune, and they both fall deeply in love. His controlling mother does everything in her power to break them up.
Tragedy follows her, and Grace must call upon every ounce of strength in her redoubtable character to keep her child and to triumph over scheming adversaries to rebuild her life once more.
