Kathy's Courage - A captivating, emotional World War Two saga

Can she hide the secret that could ruin her reputation?
After becoming pregnant out of wedlock, Kathy feared for her future until her mother agreed to raise the baby as her own.
While Kathy causes consternation for her family, everything changes after she meets handsome RAF pilot, Alisdair. They grow close, but when their relationship is threatened, Kathy runs away from heartbreak by joining the Auxiliary Territorial Service.
Kathy's new life in Yorkshire is a world away from the Glasgow tenement she grew up in, but she finds friendship with women who know nothing of her past, and spends her evenings at dances with charming soldiers.
But despite being surrounded by new faces, Kathy can't get Alisdair, nor her secret child, out of her mind...
A romantic and gritty World War Two Scottish saga that fans of Rosie Meddon and Rowena Summers will adore.
