Publisher's Summary

A romantic historical YA novel featuring strong female characters from the acclaimed author of Wait for Me.

It’s 1942, and as the war rages in Europe, Maisie McCall is in the Scottish Highlands swinging an ax for the Women’s Timber Corps. Maisie relishes her newfound independence working alongside other lumberjacks - including the mysterious John Lindsay.

As Maisie and John work side by side felling trees together, Maisie can’t help but feel that their friendship has the spark of something more to it. And yet every time she gets close to him, John pulls away. It’s not until Maisie rescues John from a terrible logging accident that he begins to open up to her about the truth of his past and the pain he’s been hiding.

Suddenly, everything is more complicated than Maisie expected. And as she helps John untangle his shattered history, she must decide if she’s willing to risk her heart to help heal his. But in a world devastated by war, love might be the only thing left that can begin to heal what’s broken.

Close, but no cigar

Perhaps my expectations were too high, but this story fell flat for me. There was very little about the WTC, which I was actually excited to learn about. Had we learned what Maisie was actually experiencing her transition from child to woman, would have been more meaningful. The romance was a bit lacklustre, I wasn’t convinced that John was that good of a catch. It felt a bit like an R rated story, with the steamy scenes deleted.
