    About this ebook

    “A heartwarming portrait of three young women transitioning from fiancé to wife and mother.” —Booklist

    England, 1957. Newlywed Val Walker is looking forward to starting a family. Her best friend Cissie—who used to be the flighty one—is now expecting her second child, and their mutual friend Janice recently got engaged to her boyfriend Paul. All three should be happy, but life doesn’t always go according to plan . . .
     
    Val discovers that getting pregnant with her first child isn’t so easy. While she’s home alone and pregnant, Cissie’s husband Walter starts taking interest in a new female colleague. And Janice is consumed with guilt about leaving her widowed father and young brother behind in Blackpool to start her new life in Yorkshire.
     
    As they confront these and other obstacles, the three friends start to wonder if their relationships are strong enough to survive. But no matter what, their friendship will carry them through the tough times ahead . . .
