Book description
After a traumatic past, life finally seems to be looking up for Hanna
Foster. But war is on its way . . . London, 1938. Hanna and Jack Foster
had been sent to an orphanage when their parents were killed in a train
crash, but were separated when a couple adopted Jack. Bullied and
treated like a slave, it soon became clear it was a dreadful mistake. In
desperation, Jack takes his future into his own hands and runs away to
join the merchant navy, while Hanna takes a job looking after two
children. For a time, life seems good, but war is looming and threatens
to take away everything Hanna holds dear . . . Matthews' latest
historical romance is sure to appeal to fans of the genre, who will be
delighted with the old-fashioned innocence of the story, the heavily
nostalgic tone, and the brave, winning, and plucky Fosters.
