Chasing a Dream - Paperback - 9781918028034

Kilburn, Derbyshire 1950. Stella has her heart set on becoming a writer. However, living in a small mining village with an aggressive father somewhat limits her aspirations. After the death of her grandpa - the only person to recognise and encourage her ability, Stella is lost and about to give up on her dream altogether. Then Stella meets Will, and they soon become very close. He is very supportive and keen to help her succeed in her quest. When Stella's teacher, Miss Hutton, offers to be her mentor, Stella's dreams of becoming an author seem to be within her grasp. But then a cruel twist of fate, once again, shatters her ambition. Thankfully she can rely on Will's support, that is until they find that their relationship has suddenly become the centre of a long-since uncovered secret. Can their relationship survive, and will Stella find enough strength to triumph above the constant setbacks she faces? Chasing a Dream is a story of heartbreak, love and tragedy. It follows the journey of a young girl's determination to overcome life's challenges to achieve her goal.
