Ally For LifeBOOK #2 As the solitary Land Girl on a farm in 1940s New Zealand, Alice fights her own battles to prove her farming abilities while working alongside stern and heartless men. Being trampled by an escaped sheep only seems to confirm what her new boss presumed; she's useless. And being caught naked in the freezing pond was the last thing Alice needed. But every war, big or small, has its victims, and despite an alcoholic mother and troubled past, Alice is determined not to be the victim again, ever. Can she trust the conscientious objector, Fergus? Are his feelings for her genuine, or is she part of a plan to escape the World War II soldier ballots? And will a winter storm be Alice's downfall or the impetus to discovering inner strength? |
