On Her Own Terms RSR443B

Meet three women who have stopped waiting for permission. A writer who succeeds under a male pseudonym until the secret becomes its own kind of trap. A woman who walks away from a dead-end life on impulse and discovers what she was looking for in a Norfolk village. A photographer who pauses a demanding career long enough to ask what the right choices actually cost. The Right Time - Orphaned young, Alexandra Winslow becomes a bestselling crime writer whose male pseudonym eventually extracts a price of its own. Beauchamp Hall - Betrayed by her boyfriend and best friend, Winona buys a one-way ticket to the set of her favourite TV show. Lost and Found - A photographer puts her demanding career on hold to reconnect with the men she loved and left behind. Steel is at her most propulsive and emotionally generous here, writing about the courage it takes to stop settling.
