Publisher's Synopsis
Will Glover is the hottest collier lad ever to come out of Scotland. Like Angela Morrison's contemporary young adult novels, Taken by Storm and Sing me to Sleep, Will's story is a tale of first love and heartbreak, related in intimate, first person detail. Just as Will's soul entwines around Lucie, the blooming pit village lass he's always known and never truly seen, a mysterious stranger arrives at the pits with an offer Will's father can't refuse. Hardship, tragedy and broken hearts ensue. After decades of research and rewriting, award-winning author, Angela Morrison, brings you a story inspired by her own emigrant heritage. An Ocean Atween Us is an intriguing mix of modern young adult novel and sweeping historical romance. It is the first book in Angela's We, Glovers series, a family saga written in first person, coming-of-age narratives, from one generation to the next.
