Summary

London, 1940. The war is raging across Europe, and 23-year-old Grace is devastated by the loss of her husband, Brian, at Dunkirk after only a year of marriage. Her secretary job at a law firm keeps her mind from dwelling on her sorrow, but when her boss, James, enlists in the air force Grace is left without work.

Alongside her best friend, Helen, Grace joins the War Office in a move that will change their lives forever. As Grace throws herself into the war effort, she must find the courage and strength to start her life over and find love again.

Beautiful story of military life during WW2

Annie Aldingtons narrations bring any novels to life with her gentle voice and ability to use emotion when needed, pair it with a superb author and you have a guaranteed "can't put it down" story. Once again, Beryl Matthews blows us away with her wonderful writings! Highly recommended!
