The salvage girls Sally, Betty & Lorna are still hard at work at the depot, while being admirably looked after at Star House by Mrs Beaumont. The girls are used to being kept apart from loved ones by war commitments, so Lorna is thrilled when George proposes. Only, there is one person who thinks Lorna isn’t worthy of him and plans to put a spanner in the works. Will they get their happy ever after? Newlyweds Samuel and Betty are still adapting to life but sound as if they are besotted with each other. Sally is having problems trying to pacify her mother-in-law because Mrs Henshaw is going to live with her sister Vera and she thinks that because Andrew is away at war Sally should go with her. Sally puts her foot down saying that she will stay at star house. When an old friend of Sally’s moves into Star House Sally is delighted.
I loved that it was so easy to pick up the story from previous books. If there is one thing this book teaches you it’s not to prejudge people. My favourite character was Mrs Kendall, she sounded so sweet.
The bonus was getting to the end to discover that there will be another one, can’t wait.

A WEDDING FOR THE HOME FRONT GIRLS is the fourth novel in the Home Front Girls series by SUSANNA BAVIN, but it can easily stand alone.
I loved the book and cannot wait for the next one in the series!
The story takes place in 1941 in Chorlton near Manchester where we see the dedication of the girls who are working hard for the war effort against the backdrop of the war and its horrors. We see true and lasting friendships amongst the women as they stand together in both good and bad times……
This is largely Lorna and Sally’s story as they each have very much to overcome…….
I was given a free copy of the book by NetGalley from Bookouture. The opinions in this review are completely my own.

April 1941 Manchester as we start on book four in this absolutely beautiful heartwarming saga, as preparations are well and truly under way for the wedding of Lorna and George with the residents at Star House mucking in. Air raids and rationing won't dampen the mood.
The home front girls Lorna, Sally and Betty take us into another full filling story, of love, friendship, heartache and above all working on together during WW2.
Hopefully this wedding date will go ahead will George make it home in time.
It's time to sit back relax and enjoy another fantastic read, let's not forgetting my wedding hat for the big occasion.
Another story to kick up all your emotions along the way, it's so lovely, perfect right up to the end.
I certainly can't wait for the next book to be published now.
I loved it.

I really enjoyed this book, I feel it gave a good idea about how life was for the women in WW2. Dealing with their men going away to fight and being left home alone potentially for several years to try and get by, getting married etc. these women were so strong and they had a great support system in each other. Well written, full of hopes and dreams for the future. A proper feel good read! Highly recommend great story.
