Perfect for you if...

  • You enjoy historical fiction with strong female friendships at its heart and want characters who feel real and flawed.
  • You're drawn to WWII stories that centre on the women who served in unconventional roles, away from the expected narratives.
  • You like slow-burn romance woven into gripping plotlines where the emotional stakes feel as high as the physical ones.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer romance where the couple's feelings develop smoothly without genuine conflict or misunderstanding.
  • You're looking for purely action-driven thrillers without substantial character development and emotional depth.
  • You want a light, easy read rather than one that sits with the weight of wartime trauma and difficult choices.

About this book

Ruby Morris works as a nursing orderly in the WAAF and volunteers for the air ambulance service alongside her friends Holly and Meg. The three are stationed at RAF Starsden on the outskirts of London. Ruby struggles with anxiety about flying during wartime and the weight of making critical medical decisions. Her friendship with pilot Flight Sergeant Laurie Foster helps her work through her fears. As their connection deepens, Laurie's behavior becomes inconsistent, leaving Ruby uncertain whether he shares her feelings. When a routine flight takes a dangerous turn, Ruby must act to protect her patient while confronting both Laurie and the secrets he carries.
