What to expect
Torn between the life she knows and the family she never expected.
Millie Kelly's world is turned upside down when she discovers she’s the daughter of travellers – namely the notorious Duke and Connie Lee and belonging comes at a price even if she’s ready to accept it or not.
When a suspicious fire rips through the Old Artichoke pub, leaving her former boss Finn fighting for his life, Millie is pulled deeper into a world of danger and secrets.
Driven by ambition and his love for Millie, Paul Kelly is determined to take control of his late partner’s scrapyard but his ruthless rise puts everything at risk, including Millie herself.
With enemies closing in, Paul sends Millie away to live with her real family for her own safety.
But as the truth begins to unravel, Millie is forced to face a chilling question – Can she really trust the man she loves?
