From Library Journal
After her husband's death, Amy Roberts faces many difficulties as a woman trying to run a transport business in England in the 1920s. However, she not only manages to support her children, but she also eventually marries Ralph Porter, the richest man in town. Even though Tanner devotes many early chapters to Amy's parents and siblings, near the novel's end she nearly abandons their stories. Consequently, some loose ends are left dangling, and others are knotted together hastily. Tanner makes some use of British mining as a backdrop, but this is more romance than historical novel, and readers devoted to that genre will wait for the moment when Amy at last melts into Ralph's arms.
