I very much enjoyed this book. It has a good story and excellent main characters. I would definately recommend this book.
Another very sweet and nostalgic story from Sheila Newbury. Her books are full of detail, and I find them very relaxing to read. Each one is different, but always have a happy ending! I really enjoyed this one and look forward to more titles!
A well written and poignant story that kept me hooked till the end.
I liked the well thought cast of characters, the vivid and well researched historical background, and the plot that flows.
An engrossing and entertaining read, recommended.

1914. And sisters Mattie and Evie Rowley have difficult times ahead. Their two eldest brothers and men are joining the army. The girls live in the plough inn in the village of suffolk with parents Sophia and Will. MR B is a paying guest and paints a portrait of Mattie in a yellow dress and heads back to London and they never hear from him again. Mattie works in the local post office but come her eighteenth birthday wants to venture away and find a better job so the year 1921sets off to Plymouth for a postition in the emporium for the family the Fulliloves their rich relations but is told if she doesn't settle to come back. Such an enchanting read. That takes us through both sisters lives. It's a book to be enjoyed with added recipes at the end I certainly enjoyed it all.
