Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Lesley Pearse didn't publish her first novel until she was 48. Now she has sold over ten million books around the world and is a constant presence on the bestseller chart.
A writer of heart-stopping stories, Lesley's books are filled with heroines struggling to make it in a difficult world.
Yet this description could apply to Lesley herself. In this, her first ever autobiography, she tells of growing up in an orphanage after her mother's death, her racy twenties in London during the swinging sixties and working as a bunny girl and dressmaker.
Packed full of Lesley's signature warmth, wit and poignancy, this is the story of a woman and a writer fighting against the odds to achieve her dreams.

Loved this book 💖
I’m not a fan of autobiographies but because I’ve read every book of Lesley Pearse I had to give it a try. I absolutely loved this book read it in 2 days on audio.
I’m such a fan of hers I wait in anticipation for her new editions.
I’m actually going to start reading all her books again.

wonderful
I have listened to this book in two days and it's amazing, so honestly written about that time.
Being born in the 60's growing up in the early 70's I understanded everything she talked about.
I have told everyone about it and have brought the hardback, please listen to it it's so real and perfect.
Thank you

One of the best and honest memoirs I’ve read
The open and natural way Lesley wrote of all the stages of her life to date is refreshing.
