Summary

**THE NINTH NOVEL IN THE BESTSELLING SHIPYARD GIRLS SERIES**

Sunderland, 1943: As Christmas approaches in the shipyards, everyone is hoping for a little magic...

Helen would love to find the courage to tell the dashing Dr Parker of her true feelings for him. But how can she when he clearly has eyes for someone else?

More than a year has passed since Bel's wedding to sweetheart Joe. She knows she has much to feel thankful for and yet there is still one burning desire which she cannot ignore.

And as Polly grows with child, she hopes against hope for a safe delivery - and that her husband Tommy can soon return from the front line to meet their new arrival.

There will be storms to weather, but guided by their strength and friendship there is still hope for each of the shipyard girls that their Christmas wishes will come true.

Nancy never disappoints

Each book in the series is enjoyable and creates an insatiable urge to read more. The books never disappoint me as Nancy has the skills to keep the characters true whilst creating new and wonderful twists and turns in her stories. I truly believe the Shipyard girls should be turned into a tv drama series.

Another Winner

As an avid Shipyard Girls reader i wondered where this book would go. The whole series is brilliant and this books keeps up the tradition, it tends to deal more with relationships between certain familiar characters rather than with Rosies team of girls and is fast paced and although 13 plus hours long i read it in less than 2 days, just couldn't leave it alone for long. There is plenty of room at the end for a book 10 and i look forward to it's release in audio format. Hopefully it will be the same reader, i've read a lot of books narrated by Janine and she is great! *****

An absorbing storyline ,great characters and skilful narration.I was sorry to reach the end.I hope there’s another follow up,there are lots of characters that I feel haven’t reached the end of their story,I’ve followed them through from the first book ,fingers crossed there’s another in the pipeline.

Satisfactory conclusion - maybe....

I have thoroughly enjoyed all nine books but was getting frustrated that so much was left hanging each time, this time a good ending but can see room for additional books
