After the sorrows of war, can Christmas wishes come true?

Manchester, 1922: Nancy Pike finds herself struggling to navigate her role at Miss Hesketh's school for surplus girls, struggling to grasp her lessons and job placements. Her sole source of joy is her connection with the children at St. Anthony's orphanage, where she volunteers twice a week.

Alone in the world since the loss of his brother, Nancy's presence brings a touch of sunshine back into Zachary's life. However, when she makes a grave mistake that jeopardizes his livelihood, he is left with no choice but to let her go.

As Nancy battles the prejudices surrounding her and her own fears, she is determined to spread Christmas cheer to the orphanage, and perhaps even to Zachary Milner.

This novel is the third installment in a quartet of sagas set during the early 1920s, following the stories of three Surplus Girls who lost their dreams of marriage in the Great War, and the new lives they built for themselves.
