Ambition

When the most glamorous store in Knightsbridge, Franklyns, becomes a casualty of the credit crunch, new boss Stephanie Holden is appointed to transform its fortunes.

Turning a profit seems the easy part when she is pitted against ruthless executive Fiona Newman. Fiona has a perfect life, husband and job and won’t relinquish her power easily. Then there’s General Manager Paul Stewart, a womanizer trying to put his marriage first.

As Rachel Healy arrives from Dublin to start work she is full of ambition. But it’s a long journey to the top. Especially when there are distractions like Paul . . . and Hugo, Stephanie’s wayward son, who thinks everything in life is there for the taking.

When Fiona falls in love with a stranger on a train and becomes the victim of a crime, a chain of events unfold that lead right to Stephanie’s door. Stephanie has a deadline to save the store. But she also has to save her career, her son and ultimately herself.
