A heart-wrenching and nostalgic family saga from acclaimed author Annie Wilkinson.Perfect for fans of Katie Flynn and Margaret Dickinson AS WAR RAGES, CAN LOVE SURVIVE? Hull, 1943 17-year-old Muriel Dearlove has weathered the Blitz unscathed, but with her sweetheart Bill away fighting and her friends conscripted into the WRENs and WAAF, life has become tedious for Muriel. So when an old friend returns from the Land Army, rosy-cheeked and looking healthier than ever, Muriel decides to sign up and become a Land Girl. Despite being desperate for the chance to broaden her horizons, Muriel quickly realises that her new job involves more than just making hay in the sunshine and dancing with the troops stationed nearby, especially under the watchful eyes of their hard-nosed warden, Mrs Hubbard.Then Muriel meets Ernst, a German prisoner of war, and is faced with a life-changing decision: in fraternizing with the enemy, Muriel is breaking the law, but to never see Ernst again would break her heart.As tensions between the Land girls and the locals grow, so does Muriels forbidden love for Ernst, and soon must decide whether love really can conquer all . . .
