Summary

War is fleeting, but true love last forever...

May 1944

Hope and excitement is in the air when news breaks of the allied forces landing in Normandy. D Day has arrived. However, the day-to-day struggles for the Tobacco Girls continue.

Carole Thomas wants her old life back. She is burdened with the guilt of being a young single mother and considers having baby Paula adopted, but Maisie Miles will do anything to stop her.

Phyllis Mason having found the love of her life is getting married in Malta to Mick Fairbrother, but will the dangerous legacies of war plague her happy day?

Bridget O’Neill finds herself posted to one of the hospitals receiving the injured from the D-Day landing beaches. Her most fervent hope is that her husband, Lyndon, does not become one of them.

Peace is on the horizon, but will their wishes and dreams win through and bring them a happy ever after?

Love this series!

What a lovely story it takes you back in time and is quite emotional at times, great story and narration, will be getting the next in the series to finish off the story.
My parents were born and lived through the war and the same ages as the characters and it gives a great insight into what they all had to endure.

Easy listening

I really enjoy the stories of the “3 M’s” but the narrator makes them sound like a bunch of octogenarians!
