Winter, 1942. Secrets abound for the Home Front Nurses, but will one of them be able to tell the truth about her past before Christmas?
As the weather turns cold, and the war rages on, Veronica Campbell finds herself loving her job as a home front nurse more than ever. She’s spending time with her beloved best friends Sylvia and Freda, as well as assisting on life-saving operations with her fellow nurse Betty Wilson, and feeling valued and happy.
But at home, she wishes things were different. Because even cosied up by the fireside of her lovely little house, there’s a man who lives on her street. Someone she’d once thought she could trust, who – five years ago – had violently attacked her. His threats to her remain, but she’s been terrified into silence.
But everything changes when Betty needs somewhere to stay for Christmas, and Veronica impulsively suggests she move in with her. But can she trust Betty enough to let her guard down and tell her what happened that fateful day? Because if she doesn’t… will Betty be put at risk too?

April 1942, Bath – the nurses are under fire in the city they once thought safe…
Freda knows the work she does on the home front is vital. Especially when bombs begin raining down on her beloved city of Bath and she and her friends find themselves feeling the effects of war like never before.
Years of being told to be a ‘good girl’ by her mother, Freda has always done what’s been expected of her. But, even though she’s proud of her work nursing soldiers and victims of war, she can’t help but wonder if there’s more for her in life. And her secret desire to become a journalist feels increasingly like a calling she can’t resist.
Even though it’s not considered work suitable for women, Freda knows she has to follow her dream. Even if it means leaving her nursing, friendships and maybe even true love behind.

About the Author
Author of 30 novels, Rachel has been concentrating solely on the historical genre for the last few years. Her books are primarily set in Bath or London during the Victorian and Edwardian periods, but her latest series, The Home Front Nurses, is a brand new venture into WWII.
Her books often revolve around themes of female empowerment and social injustice, but they are always written with welcome doses of humor and delicious sensuality.
The first book in The Home Front Nurses series was released on 8th August and is proving a hit with reviewers! Her other popular series are the Shop Girls series and the Ladies of Carson Street trilogy.
Rachel is also passionately committed to helping aspiring writers. In January 2025, she opened The Writer Printable Co selling printable, reusable tools to help new writers on their path to success. If you’d like to know more, you can check out the shop here, or click the button below.
