The Market Stall Girl released August 1st!

I'm so excited to share the news that my next historical saga is The Market Stall Girl, which will be released in Kindle ebook and paperback August 1st.

1913 Yorkshire, England.
Beth Beaumont enjoys her life as a rhubarb farmer’s daughter in West Yorkshire. Working on the family’s stall selling the fruit and vegetables grown in their own fields gives her a sense of purpose and is healthier than working in a dangerous cotton mill.
Although not thinking of marriage, when Beth meets Noah Jackson, a village miner, she is suddenly very aware of Noah as a man who could change her mind. The summer brings the two closer and their feelings deepen while Noah studies hard to fulfill his dreams of becoming a teacher and securing a better life than his parents endure.
But, a disaster at the coal mine changes lives forever. Noah’s plans are shattered. His love for Beth is put at risk, and he fears they can never find happiness together.
However, another man wants Beth. Louis Melville, the wealthy son of a local gentry family, is acutely aware of Beth’s beauty and he wants her for himself. At first, he is willing to offer marriage, but when Beth turns him down in favour of Noah, Melville, furious to be denied, wreaks revenge with devastating consequences.
Will Beth and Noah find the happiness they wish for or will overwhelming events break them apart?

East Enders before Eastenders


Perhaps if you've a spare minute, you'd like to check out my virtual East End turf this weekend? www.carolrivers.com is where you’ll find out about my stories, all set in the East End of London. If you’re partial to a melting pot of family drama, action, crime and courage, bent coppers, strong heroes and feisty heroines then you’ve found the right place. My historical characters are rough, tough, dockland folk, marketeers and costermongers, all of whom are the predecessors to the ‘Eastenders' you watch on the telly!

Lizzie Flowers and the Family Firm is the third and most popular book in the Lizzie Flowers series. When loved ones die and family is threatened by the most vicious crime lord of them all, Lizzie must take action before it's too late. Heard of Charlie Brown's tavern, the East End pub that never died? And the Krays' notorious Blind Beggar? Then step into Lizzie Flowers's Mill Wall and the shady taverns of 1930's docklands! End crooks, villains, protectionists, bent coppers, pimps and tarts - they are all here, clamouring  to jump from the pages, while Lizzie battles to save her turf and find love into the bargain. 

Amazon available in ebook and paperback.
