Book description
Fleur Bosley didn’t believe in love at first sight, at least not until
she bumped into Robbie Rodwell on a railway station in the blackout of
wartime Britain. Posted to a newly-built Lincolnshire airfield, Robbie
as a wireless operator on bombers and Fleur as a R/T operator in the
watch office, their only escape is to the little cottage in the nearby
village where Fleur is billeted with another WAAF, Ruth. The two girls
become good friends, but Ruth, already hurt by the loss of one of the
pilots, does not approve of wartime romances.
And Ruth is not the only one to disapprove. When Fleur’s mother hears
Robbie’s name she becomes hysterical and bans him from her home. The
young couple are determined to grab their happiness where they can, but
is it a kind Fate or a cruel one that has brought them together when
secrets from the past threaten their future?
Away from their families, there is fun and laughter, the aircrews
determined to make the most of every day, every minute, but whenever
they fly off into the night on a bombing raid, Fleur must keep watch
until the early hours praying that Robbie’s plane comes back . . .
Born in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, Margaret Dickinson moved to the
coast at the age of seven and so began her love for the sea and the
Lincolnshire landscape, around which many of her novels are set. Her
ambition to be a writer began early at the age of twenty-five. This was
followed by twenty further titles, including her most recent Pauper's
Gold. Wish Me Luck
is the sequel to Without Sin.
Margaret Dickinson is married with two grown-up daughters, and lives in
Lincolnshire.
