With her family’s future resting on her shoulders, will she ever find a happiness of her own?

Lynda Page writes another touching saga in Against the Odds – a tale of a young woman’s journey to happiness and contentment. Perfect for fans of Dilly Court and Elaine Everest.


Twenty-four-year-old Lynnie Downs has a lot on her plate. First and foremost are her plans to marry Ozzie Matthews – but the odds are stacked against him ever settling down. Then there’s her mother and her younger brothers to worry about. Ray’s due out of prison soon, Jimmy and Dec have escaped from Leicester to avoid the police, and Colin is up to no good, as usual. But at work Lynnie can forget all this. For behind the counter at Cigar Sid’s betting shop, where hopes are dashed and dreams are made, Lynnie’s own fortunes are about to change…

In Lynda Page, we have an author who writes with skill and style; her characters are strongly drawn and thoroughly believable and her settings are just that little bit different...it keeps the reader enthralled from start to finish. Mark my words, on this showing Leicester's Lynda Page is destined to share the limelight - and bestseller lists - with the likes of Catherine Cookson
