Three mothers. Three very different backgrounds, and a bond they will never forget

The Lake District, 1944, and spring is in the air for the women at Mary Vale Mother and Baby Home . . .

Beautiful Stella, the head-turning cook of a munitions factory, has been swept off her feet by a handsome GI. He proposes when she falls pregnant, but soon his letters stop arriving . . .

Then there is Lillian, who is deeply unimpressed when she is conscripted as a Land Girl miles from her home, but then she meets a charming, married vet . . .

Meanwhile, midwife Ada is getting used to being back at work after the birth of her own beautiful baby girl. But she faces the biggest challenge of her life when the home is engulfed in an outbreak of whooping cough.

Though each woman is from a different walk of life only together can they help Mary Vale come through this crisis . . .
