Another lovely story in the Saga of the Cornish Girls. It all feels so real and it is easy to feel involved. Really good characters and a story line that drags you in. Can't wait for the next one.

I think this is the 7th book in the Cornish Girls series. I have enjoyed ever one if these books and I'm hoping there will be more to follow.
The war is over but people are still struggling. Food is even harder to find and rations even stricter than during the war.
Women with children have been widowed and have no way of feeding and clothing their family. Many soldiers are still overseas with families having no idea when they'll be home. Without the men, the Women's Land Army are still working the fields and looking after the animals.
Joe has had no men return to the farm yet so the girls are still toiling away wondering when it's their turn to start a new life after the war. For some it comes a lot sooner than they think.
Shelia is still grieving the loss of her husband and throws herself into opening his shop again and helping those in need. And someone from the past is one of the first to ask for her help.
It did take me a while to remember who was who and what had happened before but didn't spoil any enjoyment in the story. I love the characters in this series. I would like to find time to start at number one again and read straight through them all. So if you haven't read any,you are really lucky you will be able to read them this way.
I would love in the next book ( if there is one) to hear more about Selina as her story ended with a bit of a gripe with someone. Also Violet and Joe, I'm sure something wasn't right there, what was it?
Hope I haven't given any spoilers away and wonder if when you read it you have the same questions as I have,
Great read!

Another instalment in the Cornish Girls sage. This one includes all the characters we have met so far in the other books but has more focus on the Land Girls Joan, Lilly Selina and Caroline. A wonderful read as it was so good to catch up with characters that have become friends. Thanks to Betty Walker and her publisher. Thanks also to NetGalley

Loved loved loved catching up with all the characters once again, storyline was fab as usual, couldnt put the book down, a read that gives u all emotions really hope there is another instalment

A wonderful chance to read the next installment of this series. It's like reuniting with old friends.
Such a great read

Firstly thank you Netgalley for this Arc

What a family saga based in the war just loved it

Another brilliant book in this series

A follow-on title from this enjoyable series. This title is set after the war has ended and as someone who enjoy the wartime storyline it wasn't quite as an enjoyable read. I missed the excitement of the previous titles in the series. That said it was an easy read with some twists and turns to keep the reader engaged.

Thank you to NetGalley, the publishing team and author for allowing me to review an Arc copy.

The war might have ended but our beloved Cornish girls must continue to show strength in the face of adverse and trying times. I’ve grown soo attached to these girls and all of the characters that every book feels like a gift :’).

We meet some new friends, revisit old ones and rejoin the stories of those we’ve come to know over the last few books. I’m so addicted, they’re just so lovely and easy to read. They never fail to capture me and I always without fail, fall into the ‘one more chapter’ trap.

The war has seen them deal with many challenges and now, even though they have won the war, rationing is still very much in full force, the country is coming to grips with its losses and many men are still overseas - it’s not over yet.

The farm is busy as ever with its land girls busy providing food for the nation and bringing up a family, keeping relationships and friendships are all being tested. It all makes for such beautiful, heartfelt and inspiring reading. It’s another great one in a reliably awesome wartime series!

Great to be back with the Cornish girls. Shelia is recovering from her husband’s sudden death and has opened up the village shop again, she gets an idea to help the less fortunate villagers rebuilding the village with her kindness.
The other land girls Joan and Selina are also facing great changes in their lives. The girls are all together again for a few weddings and along with Violet and Joe at the farm times are changing.
Great book from a fantastic series looking forward to the next instalment of the girls. Betty Walker writes brilliantly the Cornish girls have become one of the family.
