The Constant Heart
The Constant Heart

Romance and resilience on the tumultuous Thames.

"The Constant Heart" could be a wonderful choice if you're intrigued by historical settings that bring London's past to life. Imagine the grit and grace of a young woman navigating the challenges of the 19th century, a time when love and loyalty are often pitted against survival. This novel combines the raw energy of the Thames with a tale of determination that could inspire you, particularly if you're drawn to stories with strong female protagonists overcoming adversity.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Despite living by the side of the Thames, with its noise, disease and dirt, eighteen-year-old Rosina May has wanted for little in life. Until her father's feud with a fellow bargeman threatens to destroy everything. To save them all, Rosina agrees to marry Harry, the son of a wealthy merchant. But a chance encounter with a handsome river pirate has turned her head and she longs to meet him again. When her father dies a broken man, Harry goes back on his promise and turns Rosina out onto the streets. She is forced to work the river herself, ferrying rubbish out of London and living rough. In spite of her hardships, she cannot forget her pirate and when tragedy threatens to strike once more she is forced to make a choice. But is she really prepared to risk everything for love?
