But with news that her lover is returning to England from a successful tour of America, how long will it be before the truth comes to light?
Secrets aren't good for anyone and Frances isn't the only one hiding things from her friends. Ginny Thomspon, another Seaside Girl is hoping for the best. But is hope enough?
Can the Seaside Girls pull together to help each other through the tough times or will their secrets tear them apart?
