Book Synopsis

From the Sunday Times bestselling author of Me Before You and the new 2023 novel Someone Else''s Shoes.

Australia, 1946. 650 brides are departing for England to meet the men they married in wartime. But instead of the luxury liner they were expecting, they find themselves aboard an aircraft carrier, alongside a thousand men.

On the sun-baked decks, old loves and past promises become distant memories, and tensions are stretched to the limit as brides and husbands change their minds. And for Frances Mackenzie, one bride in particular, it soon becomes clear that sometimes the journey is more important than the destination.



Trade Review
Brimming over with friendship, sadness, humour and romance, as well as several unexpected plot twists, it's a tremendously satisfying read and (for my money) even better than ... Me Before You * Daily Mail *
Wonderfully romantic and moving. * Daily Mail *
Gloriously entertaining. * Mirror *
