This book pulls at the heartstrings, have the tissues nearby.
The Talbot family have their fair share of worries and heartache with John in the RAF and Tom in the army. Artie works on the family farm, although he would like to join the services but feels he has a duty to stay home to help his father.
The one thing you can feel throughout the book is the warmth the family have to offer, especially from Pam, she makes a wonderful mother and your perfect idea of a farmer’s wife. There is always room for more within the farmhouse, wether it’s family, friends or even some of the men from the base.
When new girl Frances joins the land girls she is running scared she tends to put up defences to put people off as she doesn’t feel worthy, what could have happened to her? Will her secrets unfold!
Best of all, there’s scope for more.

A look at WWII time and the folks who stay behind to tend to home fires. They too have their duties, which are no less important to the war effort. Additionally, there is a peek at injured soldiers who come home to heal physically and as well as emotionally. The author helps the reader get a feel for it all. The sweet bits and bites of romance lend interest to this quick read historical story.
