Book Synopsis

She won't let anything stand in her way

After Pearl's home is destroyed in the Exeter Blitz, so too are her dreams of performing onstage. Finding work as a bus conductress instead, a chance encounter revives her hopes once more, and soon she is singing for the troops alongside new friend Ivy.

When agent Gordon Gold approaches them, Ivy jumps to sign with him and sets off for the bright lights of London. But Pearl is wary of the charming man and decides to stay, watching her friend go with a heavy heart.

A year later, while Pearl is struck mute by an illness, Ivy returns and is quick to seize the chance to fill Pearl's place, singing with the band. Once more, Pearl's dreams are threatened. Will she ever become a star?

An emotional Second World War saga about family, friendship and following your heart. Perfect for fans of Betty Walker, Fenella J. Miller and Katie Flynn.
