A snow-dusted love story.
In the Autumn of 1931, eighteen-year-old Freya Trevelyan runs
away from her home in Cornwall to follow her dream of becoming an
actress.
When she is invited to join a theatrical company about to head
out on tour, Freya thinks the path to success is clear, and, amidst
all the glamour and bustle of stage life, she finds - for the
first time - a place to belong. But can reality ever live up to
her expectations? What if her life - and falling in love - turn out
to be nothing like she planned?
An enchanting coming of age romance about following your dreams
- even when they aren't quite what you expected.
