Nothing to Lose

by Christina Jones (Author)

Synopsis

A story of love, heartbreak, and happiness, as two determined young women work against overwhelming odds.

When Jasmine's beloved granddad dies, she is left an odd bequest in his will - his bookie's stall at Ampney Crucis dog racing stadium.

Despite her snobbish parents' disgust, Jasmine is determined to make a success of the business.

In London, single mum April works all hours for the dodgy Gillespie family, dreaming of the day her daughter's dad will return. When April helps collect a debt for the Gillespies, she is left with a manic greyhound named Cair Paravel - but her landlord's not going to like that ...

When the prestigious Frobisher's trophy comes up for grabs, the Gillespies will stop at nothing to have the race held at their venue -but Jasmine and her friends are determined to have it at Ampney Crucis ...
