Description
Churchill’s Cabinet War Rooms are full of secrets …
June, 1941 Britain is in the throes of war, but Katharina Valentine feels sidelined.
Employed as a shorthand-typist in the War Office, she is transferred to the basement below – having had no idea that this dark, airless, underground maze, home of the top-secret Cabinet War Rooms, even existed, let alone what her work will entail.
Unexpected staff shortages present an opportunity to work directly for Winston Churchill himself, and Katie jumps at the chance. And as she grows closer to Wing Commander Baxter Edwards, things start to look up…
But when a jealous colleague threatens to expose information about her family that could put her in violation of the Official Secrets Act, Katie faces serious repercussions.
Will she lose both the job and the man she holds dear?

This was a really well done historical fiction novel, it had that element that I was looking for from the description. The characters had that element that I was looking for from the time-period and how well everything worked overall. The concept worked overall and enjoyed how good the story was. Molly Green wrote this perfectly and was glad I was able to read this.

A great historical book which was slightly different from the usual war sagas. Very interesting and I enjoyed this one immensely. It made the characters very real. My thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this book in return for an honest review.

No one brings historical romance to life like Molly Green, and with Courage for the Cabinet Girls she once again immerses her readers in the lives of people enduring and living through WWII, this time in the heart of London, England.
Green's character Katie is complex and relatable, and Green highlights both her strengths and flaws to make her an extremely sympathetic character. The romance between Katie and her co-worker Baxter is heartwarming and the ideal contrast to the horrors and hardships around them as their love develops.
Green's skilled narrative brings the realities of the war to life like no history book ever could. Reading certain passages, one can easily imagine being there.
Thank you for an ARC of this brilliant book to #NetGalley. #romance #wartime
