LIBERTY GIRLS
by
FIONA FORD

With a USA and UK Giveaway!!

Set around the iconic Carnaby Street department store at the height of the Blitz in London, this heart-warming story of friendship and courage in WWII was inspired by the real men and women who worked at Liberty during the 1940s.

During a visit to Liberty, author Fiona Ford discovered a plaque dedicated to the men and women who lost their lives during WWII. Intrigued by their potential stories, Fiona secured rare access to Liberty’s records and archives which served as inspiration for this exciting new saga series.

ABOUT LIBERTY GIRLS:

March, 1942: new mother Alice Milward is itching to return to her job as a shop assistant at Liberty’s. Despite her husband still being missing in action, Alice is determined to give baby Arthur the best possible start. 

She soon settles back into the rhythm of life on the shop floor, and the Liberty Girls rally to help keep everything on an even keel. 

But when the American GIs start swarming into London, there are more complications to come. 

And each of the Liberty Girls has their own impossible storm to weather. 

As they each fight their battles on the home front, only their close friendship will give them the strength they need to carry on.
