Summary

It is the summer of 1943, and war continues to rage. For Rose and her sister Diana, it’s a time of independence and self-discovery as they find first loves.

But when Rose unearths a love story from another war, she discovers an extraordinary secret and must ask herself: is she really in love?

I love this story

Highly recommend this book. I first read it as a teenager and it has remained one of my favourites! Over 20 years later I still love it.

A lovely story

I enjoyed this story and although the ending it was obvious it didn't detract from it being very enjoyable

Wonderful book

I read this some years ago but had forgotten what a lovely story this was. Extremely sad at times, beautifully romantic and so inspiring as several young women begin to recognise their own worth and liberation in the final years of WW2.

Romantic, beautiful, real

One of my favourite books, by the author of Goodnight Mister Tom. The most lovely book, brilliant characters, wise and kind and incredibly romantic. It also has lots of eternal themes of being true to yourself, real internal true consent, motherhood and loss. If you want a romance with head and heart this is a great bet.

Enjoyable, well-written WW2 love story

A lovely little book. Good story and great characterisation.

I read it because another reviewer said the novel was akin to Mary Wesley's "Part of the Furniture", which is one of my favourites!

Still a favourite

I read this a number of years ago so rediscovering it on audible has been a delight. Michelle Magorian gives a wonderful performance and the story still brings me joy
