Perfect for you if...

You love historical fiction grounded in real women's experiences, especially stories about healthcare workers during wartime.
You're drawn to second-chance romance with emotional weight, where the couple has history and stakes beyond just attraction.
You appreciate Irish settings and want stories that illuminate lesser-known corners of WWII history beyond the usual narratives.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer plot-driven thrillers over character-led historical dramas with romantic subplots.
You want explicit romance scenes and steamy tension rather than slower-burn emotional connection.
You're looking for standalone novels and aren't interested in starting a series.

About this book

In 1939, Kathleen Gallagher is training as a handywoman—an illegal midwife in West Belfast—when war is declared. She volunteers for the ambulance service, determined to support her community during the crisis. When Liam Flynn, the older brother of her best friend and her first love, also volunteers, they are thrown together once more. Kathleen remembers their kiss years ago as snow fell on New Year's Eve, but she carries a secret that she believes prevents them from ever being together. As the Belfast Blitz brings chaos and destruction, the volunteers face intense pressure. Working side by side, Kathleen and Liam grow closer, and the secrets of their past begin to seem less important against the backdrop of war. Amid the turmoil, Kathleen must decide whether she can overcome her worries and allow herself to fall in love. This is the second book in The Irish Midwives series.
