We return to Goodwill House in winter 1941. The Harcourt family are still in residence, though life is difficult with war time rationing, lack of glass to repair the broken windows and of course the constant threat of air raids ever present.
In previous books we met land girl Charlie who is billeted at Goodwill House whilst working on a nearby farm. This book is her story, and centres round her growing friendship with local Doctor James Willoughby whom she initially got to know in a previous book when she spent a while being cared for by him following a concussion.
Charlie holds a secret in her past, opening up to her closest friends that she was raped. As a result, she is wary of men & feels that she will never marry.
Whilst the book does centre round Charlie & her gentle, burgeoning relationship with the handsome doctor, there is still room for more about life at Goodwill House and other family members. There are some references to what’s happened previously in the series, including reference to two WAAFs who had married RAF pilots and were now widows.
Overall, it was nice to be back amongst the Goodwill House family, but I was left feeling “meh” at the end of the book as I wasn’t sure it really added as much to the story of Goodwill House as other books in the series.

It took me a little while to get into this book which is unusual for me as I am an avid reader but when I did I enjoyed it and wished it to go on, so let’s hope I find a follow on
Thank you Julia
