Nellie Wildchild

This was the first EMMA BLAIR book I'd read, I couldn't put it down. I have read 6 more of her novels since this one.She writes in the style of Catherine Cookson with more gutsy details. At first you'll laugh being out with Nellie Thompson and her friend Babs at Saturday night dances.Nellie falls for Frank, but he's a Catholic. Her father is furious; they want her to marry Jim.After Frank is forced to leave town Nellie relents and marries Jim, what a mistake she's made!
