Broken Promises

At the age of 15, Rose realised her life was going to be very different to the dreams she had once held for her future. She would not live the fairytale life she had imagined. Instead, she would find herself living in a nightmare of broken promises with no apparent way out. But in her deep love for her children, she would find the strength, determination and courage to go on, to push forward, if only for them. Australia is a big, diverse country and Rose experienced many emotions moving around this dynamic landscape more often than she liked. Finding out her mother's secret, and then losing her mother, threw her life into turmoil. To discover more and find answers to the many questions she had, she would have to leave her quiet little village on the mid north coast of New South Wales and travel alone to Italy. Separated by time and secrets, would strangers finally find each other? And just how long is the road to happiness?
