Don’t miss this poignant and heartwarming WW2 novel for fans of Rosie Clarke, Dilly Court and Rosie Archer.

Scotland, 1944

Fearless Seffy was hoping for a transfer to England to be near Callum, the Canadian soldier she has given her heart to. Instead, she is instructed to train a new group of lumberjills. Will their unhelpful attitude finally be a match for Seffy’s determination and cheerfulness?

Sensible Jean is a true believer in the wartime effort. When she meets a conscientious objector, can she accept that following the rules might not always define a person?

And young Missy has come all the way over from Canada to surprise her first love, Callum, who is stationed as a soldier in England. But despite this grand act of love, his heart may no longer belong to her…

The Women’s Timber Corps are about to have a tumultuous year…

About the Author

Helen Yendall has had dozens of short stories and a serial published in women's magazines over the past twenty years and now writes female-focused WW2 novels. She's a member of the Romantic Novelists' Association. She studied English and German at Leeds University and has worked in a variety of roles: for a literary festival, a university, a camping club, a children's charity and in marketing and export sales. But her favourite job is the one she still has: teaching creative writing to adults. Although a proud Brummie by birth, Helen now lives in the North Cotswolds with her husband and cocker spaniel, Bonnie. When she's not teaching or writing, she likes reading, swimming, tennis and walking in the beautiful countryside where she lives.
