Shirley Mann
An inspiring and uplifting tale of women on the home front. For fans of Annie Groves and Nancy Revell.
On the ground, the crowd of men stood with their mouths agape, watching the wings soar into the air, the tail kept impressively steady and the small plane with a woman at the controls disappearing into the May sunshine.
It's 1942 and Bobby Hollis has joined the Air Transport Auxiliary in a team known as the 'glamour girls' - amazing women who pilot aircraft all around the country.
Bobby always wanted to escape life on the family farm and the ATA seemed like the perfect opportunity for her. But there's always something standing in her way. Like a demanding father, who wants to marry her off to a rich man. And the family secrets that threaten to engulf everything.
As Bobby navigates her way through life, and love, she has to learn that controlling a huge, four-engined bomber might just be easier than controlling her own life . . .

There are moments of excitement and suspense as well as romance and intrigue, enough to keep a reader's interest and enough to be anxious to know what will happen next.
There is a good atmosphere of the times and of place which for me is always important in my reading.
I recommend this book to all who wish to escape for a while into another woman's life and time.

The narrator did a great job bringing the characters to life.
The story is fascinating and gave me a much better understanding of the roles of the ATA girls but also the horrors and pain that was endured by so many during the war. Please listen to this book if you enjoy learning more but also realising some fun was had during extremely difficult times
Fabulous
