THE BRAND-NEW NOVEL FROM MAGGIE MASON, AUTHOR OF THE HALFPENNY GIRLS AND THE FORTUNE TELLERS
She'll do anything to protect her family from war . . .
BLACKPOOL, 1914
Seventeen-year-old Maddie has grown up in a boarding house on one of Blackpool's poorest streets. Life is busy, but happy, as she works alongside her mother taking care of their visitors. But when war breaks out, her happiness is shattered as her fiancé is called up to fight for his country, and suddenly Maddie's future is filled with uncertainty.
As Blackpool becomes a training ground for the army, the guesthouse is used as a billet for soldiers, and Maddie soon finds herself drawn to one in particular: Arnie. As the pair grow close and his departure date nears, their feelings for one another intensify. Little does she know, the short six weeks she's known and loved Arnie will impact the rest of her life . . .
As Maddie comes to terms with a future she couldn't have ever imagined, her best friend Daisy, working in her mother's café on Blackpool promenade, promises to help any way she can.
With so much change and uncertainty on the horizon, can Maddie protect her growing family from the hardships of war?
A heart-wrenching and touching wartime novel about motherhood, hardship and courageous women during WWII. The perfect read for fans of Val Wood, Kitty Neale and Rosie Goodwin.
