I was excited to be invited by Rachel Kennedy from Cornerstone to be part of the promotional tour for this, the latest instalment in the Shipyard Girls series. I was really disappointed to not have space in my reading schedule to read and review this book in time for the tour, but am delighted to be able to feature the book here on Sandie's Book Shelves as this is a series I have been wanting to read for some time. As it is book 5 in the series I think I have some catching up to do!
Here's the synopsis of the book as a taster for you:

Nancy Revell is the author of the Shipyard Girls series, which is set in the north-east of England during World War II.
She is a former journalist who worked for all the national newspapers, providing them with hard-hitting news stories and in-depth features. Nancy also wrote amazing and inspirational true life stories for just about every woman’s magazine in the country.
When she first started writing the Shipyard Girls series, Nancy relocated back to her hometown of Sunderland, Tyne and Wear, along with her husband, Paul, and their English bull mastiff, Rosie. They now live just a short walk away from the beautiful award-winning beaches of Roker and Seaburn, within a mile of where the books are set.
The subject is particularly close to Nancy’s heart as she comes from a long line of shipbuilders, who were well known in the area.
