The first in a heartwarming saga series set during the Second World
War. Perfect for fans of Pam Howes and Elaine Everest. 1942 Working
in the greengrocers and playing the piano in the pub a couple of
nights a week isn't fulfilling nineteen-year-old Trixie Smith's
idea of helping Britain win the war. One day she sees a poster
advertising the Women's Timber Corps and decides to sign up - soon
she is on her way to Scotland for four weeks of training to become
a Lumberjill. On her journey north she meets Cy, an American
soldier on leave. Their attraction is instant and they both feel
that fate has brought them together. Although their time with one
another is brief, they promise that they'll be together as soon as
the war is over. But training to become a Lumberjill is hard;
working in all weathers, felling trees and hauling timber is
dangerous and exhausting. Luckily Trixie quickly makes friends with
three of her fellow Lumberjills. Each of them has different reasons
for signing up and travelling far from home, but running away from
your problems doesn't make them disappear.
