Summary Aimee Kendrick is no stranger to heartache. Having lost her father during the Great War and her mother, a famous French Impressionist painter, in a tragic accident, Aimee is brought up by her troubled grandparents on the banks of the River Mersey. She works hard at her art lessons and is encouraged to believe she has inherited her mother's gift, but it is her childhood friend and fellow student Frankie Hopkins who shows greater talent. When Frankie joins the Kendricks' textile mill to work on new fabric designs, Aimee begs her grandfather to teach her how to run the business. Working together, Aimee and Frankie become much more than friends, but then they find themselves involved in family problems and it is impossible to know what the future holds.
