‘I was completely enthralled… So compelling. I couldn’t put this book down… Will completely capture your heart.’ NetGalley reviewer, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Air hostess Lola has found home in the skies, and the community of women around her. But when she’s forced to return to the place she ran from, will the scars of the past ruin everything she’s worked so hard for?
England, 1948. When news of the Berlin Blockade reaches England – leaving a city full of innocent people without food or water – Lola’s boss offers his fleet of Dreamgirls planes to the cause, and air hostess Lola along with them. But while her pride swells at the idea of being part of such an important mission, setting foot on German soil means confronting a past she’s worked hard to bury…
Ten years ago, Lola arrived in England from Germany as a terrified Jewish refugee. She lost everything – her family, her home, her identity. And now, she’s being asked to put herself in danger to help the country that took everything from her.
With the Dreamgirls, she’s found purpose and a new family in the wonderful women she works alongside, whose strength bolsters her own. But when she sets foot on German soil once more, will confronting her past open up old wounds – or finally help them heal for good?
An emotional, uplifting and inspiring historical novel that will break your heart and then put it back together again. Perfect for fans of Sandy Taylor, Call the Midwife and Come Fly With Me.
