Clare has big plans but the Maggie Bright holds mysteries and war intervenes. While I really enjoyed this(cont in comments)...

TheHeartlandBookFairy story and would absolutely recommend it, I will say it took me a little while to really get into it. Maybe it's just a busy time of the year or maybe that's just how it is but I'm glad I stuck with it and ended up hooked on the story!👍👍 1y

This book is fantastic. About the battle of Dunkirk it doesn't pull any punches. Some action, some romance and a great story made this one of my favorite reads of 2015.
