Megans path leads her to fall into a marriage with a man she does not love and at whose hands she suffers beatings and rape. With Hatties help she finally escapes, but her path crosses that of the beautiful, rich and powerful, Laura Harvey. It is Lauras need to have her wish at any price that triggers an eruption of violence that brings Megan near to death and sends the man both Megan and Laura love to prison, for a murder he did not commit. Hatties path crosses that of paedophile, Lord Marley. She is raped by him and his companion. Her ten pound silence money buys her an abortion but her choices have gone and she is forced into a life of prostitution. It is when she stumbles across an evil, child sex ring and is determined to break it that she once more encounters Lord Marley and though shesucceeds in her quest and gets her revenge, she pays a terrible price. But, throughout, Megan and Hattie know their unbreakable bond will bring them through and for both too, a rare and true love is waiting.
