A moment of passion. A lifetime of consequences. A marriage neither expected-yet both might come to need. When George Bradley-a grounded young site manager-spends a weekend in the country, he's unprepared for the whirlwind that is Birdie Robbins: delicate, headstrong, and utterly beguiling. Their connection is electric, but when one reckless night leads to an unexpected pregnancy, George finds himself hurled into a world of privilege, pressure, and perilous decisions. As secrets unravel and class tensions simmer, George and Birdie must navigate the tangled threads of love, expectation, and self-discovery. Set in late 1970s England, Skein of Silk is a richly layered domestic drama filled with biting social commentary, sensual tension, and unforgettable characters. From the genteel suffocation of Longmeadow to the earthy realness of a half-ruined Sussex cottage, this emotionally charged story is as vivid as it is intimate. Can love be born from obligation? Or will the skein of their entwined lives unravel before it truly begins? Perfect for fans of evocative period fiction, slow-burn romance, and stories that explore the weight of family, class, and choice.
