Samenvatting:

Cathy was a happy, blushing bride when Britain went to war with Germany three years ago. But her youthful dreams were crushed by her violent husband, and even when he’s conscripted she knows it’s only a brief respite – divorce is not an option. Cathy, a true Brogan daughter, stays strong for her beloved little son Peter. When her husband is declared missing in action, Cathy can finally allow herself to hope – in just 6 months she will legally be a widow. In the meantime, she has to keep Peter safe and fed. So she advertises for a lodger, and Sergeant Archie McIntosh of the Royal Engineers’ Bomb Disposal Squad turns up. Kind, clever and handsome, their mutual attraction is instant. But with her husband’s fate unclear, and the Blitz raging on over London’s East End, will Cathy ever have the love she deserves?
