A brand new wartime family saga, perfect for fans of Rosie Goodwin and Val Wood.
Mansfield House Hotel has been a refuge for Emily ever since she was orphaned at the age of 16. Not only did they give her employment as a chambermaid, but it's also where she met her fiancé, Tom.
When theatre agent Roland stays at the hotel and hears Emily singing, he is determined to take her away to Bristol and make her a star. But knowing she'd never leave her fiancé, he hatches a plan to get Emily away from Tom.
Six years later, Emily has made a name for herself as "The Bristol Songbird." Her love for Tom is still as strong as ever, but she hasn't heard from him since that fateful night so long ago. And with the world enveloped in a war, it seems unlikely the two will ever meet again.
Will Emily and Tom ever find their way back to one another? Or will the war, and Roland, succeed in keeping them apart?
Praise for Karen Dickson:
"A compelling saga that will hold you fast from the first page to the last. Loved it." - VAL WOOD, author of The Lonely Wife
"This rollercoaster of a novel draws you in from the first page... I devoured this in one sitting and look forward to more from this author. In short, a gem of a read." - FIONA FORD, author of Wartime at Liberty's
"Lily Hayter is a wonderful heroine whose resilience and integrity shine through as she struggles to claim a life of her choosing and find a family.

I eagerly await more from Karen Dickson." - VICKI BEEBY, author of The Ops Room Girls
