A captivating historical novel set in Edwardian times! Perfect for fans of Barbara Taylor Bradford, Catherine Cookson, Margaret Powell and Kate Morton.

She’s fought her way to the top … but is Louisa heading for heartbreak?

London, 1904

Ambitious Louisa Trotter has fought her way up from the lowest levels of domestic service to become the mistress of her own hotel, the Bentinck, in the heart of colourful Edwardian London.

Surrounded by her loyal, eccentric staff and loved by her guests — and with her feckless husband and an almost-fatal illness behind her — she is content and at peace, running her hotel in her own unconventional way.

When her old friend and former lover, Charlie Tyrrell – now Lord Haslemere – resumes his residence at the Bentinck, he and Louisa decide to put their past romance behind them.

But a part of her will never forget the secret that binds them inextricably together, and when Charlie’s integrity is called into question, Louisa goes on the warpath to defend his reputation – and that of her beloved hotel.

But when a shock proposal turns her world upside down, she’s forced to confront some unwelcome truths…

Is Louisa really over the one love of her life? Can she master her emotions as efficiently as she runs her business?

And as wedding bells chime, can Louisa – and Charlie – find the strength to finally let go?

THE GOLDEN YEARS is the second book in The Duchess of Duke Street series, which was based on the hit BBC television series,and is a set of three compelling historical novels featuring a strong and fearless heroine.

4.0 out of 5 stars Based on the television series..
Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2014

The Duchess of Duke Street is a book, let us say a novelization, of a good chunk of the first part of the television, The Duchess of Duke Street. Now, that's kind of funny, from what I understand the series is based on the real life of a real person, Rose Lewis. In fact I found a book, The Duchess of Jermyn Street: The Life and Good Times of Rosa Lewis of the Cavendish Hotel, a bio on Rosa Lewis. There is not much to say about this book - it follows the events in the TV story up to a certain point and it well written. The authors are known from writing Victorian historical pieces, so they know their locations, history, and how to create a proper atmosphere.

It is merely a repeat of her previous book! Read the original book Duchess of Duke Street and don't waste your time or money on this one.
