Thanks to the Publisher and Netgalley for a nearly review copy.

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading all the books in this series.

The story was well written.

Alice arrives back in Cornwall after she was injured and lost the man she was in love with during the last assignment whist undercover.

She is asked to join a team of code breakers and as she has decided not to do spy training anymore, she agrees..

Imogen’s next task is to be around the new vicar, as it’s thought that he could be a spy.

Pearl, who used to be in a group that used to dance and entertain the Americans is not that happy as she’s been let down by the person she loved.

I recommend this book.

What a great read. I love these books, often with lots of interwoven family members and this one did not disappoint. Set towards the end of WW2 in Bude, Cornwall, the story tells us of Alice, Imogen and Pearl, all who have had their hearts broken recently and how the end of the war helped them to learn and love again. The depth of the characters were a testimony to the author - I do love a strong independent woman and all three ladies were no exception! Thanks to Net Galley for the advanced copy.

Another wonderful read from Betty Walker. I loved the characters especially Alice, Imogen and Pearl. This was a heart warming story of love. friendship and romance at a very difficult time during the war. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading these stories and following the lives of the characters. Beautifully written and a great story line which was difficult to out down.

The war is nearly over but the girls from Cornwall still have work to do and lives to lead. This is the last book in this series and I would recommend reading all six books in order if you are able so you can follow the girls and their lives in Cornwall. 5 stars.

Thanks to Netgalley, author and publisher for this ARC

This is book number 6 in The Cornish Girls series.
It takes ne a few chapters to remember who everyone is and what they did in the previous book.
There's heartache for Alice during her spy training and she decides to undertake a different kind of work helping her country.
Imogen is asked to follow certain people and report if she has evidence that they are spies. What happens if she's attracted to the person she should be watching?

The battalions who have been based in Cornwall are preparing to leave for D Day across in France. Will this bring the end of the war ? And how many soldiers will loose their lives and never return?

American,Pearl who came to Cornwall, with a dance troop is let down in a horrible way but decides to stay and find another job or help in the war effort.

What a good read. It was great to be back with these women once again as they head towards the end of the war. All have hopes for a better future,a future that will bring back the men they love who have been away for so long.

As war is heading towards the final part Alice returns to Cornwall from London and Penny, Florence, Immi and Pearl plus the residents of the guest house have their own adventures in Bude. Best to read the novels in order. Thanks to Betty and her publisher. Thanks also to NetGalley

The beauty of this series is that it just keeps giving!
Already a big family who have found room for evacuees, they welcome Dr Tyson and his children Clara and Toby who have come to board at Ocean View. Alice meanwhile is working undercover in London where her job puts her in danger. There are some wonderful characters, my favourite being Pearl who seems able to turn her hand to most jobs. The intriguing Mr Townsend!
I laughed out loud at the baby’s description. The saddest part was when I got to the end, I have thought about it since.
