I have just read this book and loved it. I will be honest, before I started it I did think it might possibly be 'more of the same' but was completely surprised, I couldn't put it down! It is very true to how life will have been during the hardship of the second world war, with it's tragedies, loss and strong friendships to help them all through such terrible times.
The book is centered around April who is a nurse and has lost everyone close to her, all April wants is to be part of a family again, when she has an opportunity to transfer to Truro in her role as a nurse she accepts and starts a new life there, at first it seems much quieter than where she previously lived in London, but as the Americans arrive to help with the war effort, problems arise in many different ways. would definitely recommend.
