A Christmas Proposal

Beatrice Wentworth lost everything in the Great War – her brothers, her fiancé, her way of life. Will this war bring back feelings she had long forgotten?

Beatrice is settling into life in the countryside, along with Victoria and Nell, as a teacher evacuee. Her world is turned upside down again when she meets David, the village doctor, who wins her over with a kiss at the Christmas party.
The remaining walls around her heart crumble entirely when one of her pupils' family is killed in an airstrike, and she can no longer deny her motherly affection for the child.
But is Beatrice willing to open herself to the possibility of loss and heartache again for love? When David volunteers for service and history threatens to repeat itself, Beatrice must dig deep to find the courage to live the life she’s dreamed of…
A gripping, festive Second World War saga for fans of Daisy Styles, Katie Flynn and Elaine Everest.
