Love blooms in the darkest days.
London, 1942.
Despite the raging war, spirited eighteen-year-old Nellie Morris lives a quiet life in the tight-knit East End community of Bethnal Green. Her family and friends all tease that she will marry air raid warden Billy, the boy next door who’s always been sweet on her.
Although the arrival of Ray, a handsome American airman stationed nearby, causes Nellie to question everything she thought she knew about her future.
But Nellie’s newfound happiness is short-lived when a tragic accident occurs during an air raid. Even the closest family can't escape the devastation of war, and as the secrets and truth about that fateful night become clear, they threaten to tear Nellie – and those dearest to her – apart.

I paid £20 for this book only to find out after that Millie didn’t even write it! But even worse is the printed autograph! Waterstones has the book as a signed book by Mille, but it’s clearly a printed autograph.... More
Very disappointed to see this was not Millie Bobby Browns autograph. Can't even be verified, despite Waterstones adamant this is her autograph :(
