As soon as Ava Kent spots Jed in her local rescue centre, she knows, just as much as he does, they are perfect for each other. It's love at first sight, and despite her husband's misgivings, she offers him a home. Not much is known of Jed, other than he is a stray picked up from the streets of Eastbourne, but he soon proves himself a loyal and loving companion - in fact, he's something of a lifesaver. When Ava suffers the traumatic birth of her first child alone at home, it's Jed that somehow escapes the house to find help.

Have you ever been on a train and wondered who on earth you were sitting next to? Sometimes we make assumptions due to the look of someone, but have no idea what the back story is and what the outcome to their story might be. These stories are all set on a delayed train from Portsmouth to London.

Rupert, the Marquess of Mercat is the new master of what remains of a once-glorious estate. His father Henry’s misconduct of his life and his land have left Rupert with no choice but to sell as much as possible to pay off his father’s debts and provide for his mother. But the aristocracy all believe that his father’s misdeeds are Rupert’s own, and he is ostracized by them and called ‘the prodigal marquess’.

All he could do was crawl, but that wasn’t all; he wanted to fly, but he didn’t know why.
