After the War Is Over: Liverpool, 1945. Three women, firm friends, return home from the war and try to fit back into their old lives after they've been demobbed.

Laceys of Liverpool: He began to kiss her more passionately and she couldn’t find the strength to push him away – perhaps the truth was she didn’t want to find it. She wished she weren’t so sensible, so religious, so cautious, that she could find the courage to live with him openly and not give a damn about being respectable and what anyone thought. Or that she were harder, like John, able to leave the people she loved behind without a second thought.
Lights Out Liverpool(PEARL STREET SERIES 01): Francis reached for his wife with his free arm and, in a dramatic gesture, swung her towards him. He kissed her long and hard on the lips and everyone cheered. ‘Tara, luv,’ he said, releasing her. Suddenly, Eileen felt it was all too much. She burst into tears. ‘Don’t worry, Sis, he’ll be back.’
Lime Street Blues:‘Sweet sixteen!’ Lachlan remarked when he met Jeannie on the stairs. She was on her way up from the kitchen where she’d been getting something to eat and he was on his way down. ‘Old enough to be kissed.’ He smiled and kissed Jeannie chastely on her left cheek, stopped smiling and looked at her seriously for a minute, then kissed the other cheek, not quite so chastely this time. Then he groaned and his face seemed to collapse. ‘Jeannie! I’ve been longing to do this for years, but you seemed so young.’
The Girl From Barefoot House: War tears Josie Flynn from all she knows. Life takes her to Barefoot House as the companion of an elderly woman, and to New York with a new love. But she’s soon back in Liverpool, and embarks upon an unlikely career …
Set 2
The House by Princes Park: Those who had spoken to her said she was clever. She used long words and knew all sorts of funny things, though she didn’t talk posh. Her accent was more Irish than Scouse and she’d obviously fallen on hard times. Oh, and her name was Ruby – Ruby O’Hagan.
The Leaving of Liverpool: She got out of bed and sat by the window. Right now, she wasn’t quite sure where she was. Was that a forest across the road lit by the occasional lamp? Cars drove by and she wondered what time it was. What was she doing here? Whose house was this? What had happened to Mollie?
The Old House on the Corner: Victoria lives in the old house on the corner. When the land is sold, she finds herself surrounded by new properties. Soon Victoria is drawn into the lives of her neighbours – their loves, lies and secrets.
The September Girls: Cara and Sybil are both born in the same house on one rainy September night. Years later, at the outbreak of war, they are thrown together when they enlist and are stationed in Malta. It’s a time of live-changing repercussions for them both …
Through the Storm(PEARL STREET SERIES 03): War has taken a terrible toll on Pearl Street, and changed the lives of all who live there. The German bombers have left rubble in their wake and everyone pulls together to come to terms with the loss of loved ones.
Set 3
Put Out the Fires(PEARL STREET SERIES 02): September 1940 - the cruellest year of war for Britain's civilians as the Luftwaffe mercilessly blitz their cities. In Pearl Street, near to Liverpool's vital docks, families struggle to cope the best they can. A nasty surprise for ever cheerful dressmaker Brenda Mahon and flighty Sean's love for little Alice show how life goes on even when it appears to be falling apart. Yet while Eileen Costello tries to hide her ruined hopes of happiness with Nick and do her best by the husband she hoped had gone forever, Ruth Singerman returns having escaped from Austria. Even the joy of seeing her father again cannot make up for the bitter loss of her children.
Dancing in the Dark : Millie Cameron is not at all pleased when she finds herself obliged to sort through the belongings of her aunt Flo who recently died. She hardly knew her aunt and besides, she has her own career to think about. But when she arrives at Flo's basement flat, Millie's interest is awakened. As she sorts through her aunt's collection of photographs, letters and newspaper cuttings she finds herself embarking on a journey - a journey to a past which includes a lost lover and a secret child. Picking through the tangled web of Flo's life, Millie makes the startling discovery that all the threads lead to herself . . .

But there comes a time amidst the success when things happen to make Annie feel she can no longer go on. Then a chance meeting leads to events she has no control over, and at last she finds the happiness that has previously eluded her.
