Valley series by Grace Thompson (#01~4)
Requirements: ePUB Reader, 3.1MB | Retail
Overview: Grace Thompson was born in Barry, South Wales. After her children grew up she qualified as a Nursery Nurse and worked with children in care and in schools. Then, following six years in Berkshire watching her grandchildren grow up, she moved back to South Wales, and now spends her mornings walking the cliffs and beaches of Mumbles and the Gower with her welsh collie.
Genre: Fiction | Romance
1. A Welcome in the Valley
The little Welsh village of Hen Carw Parc - the old deer park - seems to be an island of rural tranquility. But the inhabitants are a lively and varied community - and none more so than Nelly Luke, the cheerful Cockney widow who for many years has made the ramshackle cottage on the village outskirts her cosy, if unconventional, home.
Although her eccentric lifestyle is the despair of her social-climbing daughter Evie, Nelly's warmth and wisdom win her many friends. There's Fay, the young newly-wed whose marriage is haunted by the all-too-substantial ghost of her first love, lost in the war; Amy, the glamorous shopkeeper whose private life is colourful indeed; and her dignified sister Prue, whose family cupboard contains more than a few skeletons. Against the mounting excitement of the Coronation summer, Nelly steers her friends and family through storm and sunshine alike...
2. Changing Valley
The small South Wales village of Hen Carw Parc is a haven of rural peace, a gentle backwater where the rhythms of life flow at a time-honoured pace. But times are changing and, although Nelly Luke and the older villagers stick resolutely to tradition, the younger ones have caught tantalising glimpses of a world beyond their quiet valley. For ambitious Fay Cartwright the lure of a career strains her marriage to home-loving Johnny still further, while Amy, the happy-go-lucky shopkeeper, is saddened when her son is given Army leave but fails to return to his family home. And there are other, more serious intrusions, not least a spate of robberies whose ruthless perpetrator looks likely to be one of their own. But despite the trauma of change, the life of the village continues, fuelled as ever by the humour, kindness and surprising wisdom of, the incomparable Nelly.
3. Valley Affairs
Nelly Luke is a Cockney born and bred, but after thirteen years in Hen Carw Parc, Dirty Nelly and her eccentric ways are as much part of village life as its most senior citizen, old Grandad Owen. But not even Nelly, with her shrewd eye on village goings-on, can predict the surprises in store for her family and friends as the year 1954 opens in the tranquil Welsh valley.
For the new year brings new faces: handsome Maurice Davies is just back from five years in the army and Sheila Powell, a Llangwyn shop-girl, is eager to help him make up for lost time. But for some there's no escaping the past, and newly widowed Prue Beynon finds herself confronted by a legacy she'd rather forget. For youngsters like Nelly's grandson Ollie even the quiet rural valley holds the promise of new adventures - and unexpected dangers.
4. Valley in Bloom
As 1954 draws to an end, the village of Hen Carw Parc is changing. The post-war boom brings with it television sets and a lethargy which threatens the community spirit. Several of the inhabitants think of ways to revive the missing spirit, including entering the Best Kept Village competition.
