It’s one of the most nerve-wracking moments of her life, but then she meets fellow volunteers Joan Norfolk and Trixie Dunn, and a bond of friendship is forged in the fire of life on the wards during the Blitz. Days are spent nursing injured soldiers back to life and nights are spent anticipating bombs falling from the sky and then trawling through the wreckage to save who she can, but the light and laughter she finds with Jo and Trix see Kitty through the darkest hours. And when Kitty starts growing closer to handsome Canadian doctor Michael McCarthy, it’s her friends who help her to find the courage to realize that no matter what has happened or what is to come, we all deserve love… 650 0 Orphans|vFiction. 650 0 World War, 1939-1945|xWar work|xRed Cross. 650 0 Friendship|vFiction. 650 0 Man-woman relationships|vFiction. 655 7 Historical fiction.|2lcgft 655 7 War fiction.|2lcgft 655 7 Romance fiction.|2lcgft
