Summary
The only child to a single father, Frankie grew up behind a desk at the family garage, and for as long as she can remember, she has loved nothing more than the sounds of engines and the smell of oil. A natural-born tinkerer, it was only a matter of time before her imagination turned to the skies, and a life-long love of aircraft was born, propelling Frankie beyond her hometown and the expectations of her society.
Now a qualified aircraft mechanic in the Women's Auxiliary Air Force, she finds herself stationed at Thorpe Abbotts, surrounded by pilots from America, a land so far away it may as well be another planet. But the arrival of the 100th Bomb Group and a budding bond with Major Robert 'Rosie' Rosenthal promises to break more than just protocol.

Summary
Freddie has no interest in getting to know any new pilots. She's known loss too intimately, carried the weight of it around every day for two and a half years, tucked it into bed beside her like a childhood teddy bear. But these American airmen crowding into the airfield, throwing their weight around and commanding attention and forcing absolutely everyone to be their friend, won't take no for an answer.
Freddie has no interest in romance. She's had her chance at love and she lost it, and she's mostly content to let the other girls have their turn. But one of these American airmen, a pilot with bright blue eyes and a shy smile, won't take no for an answer.
It's not easy, giving away a heart which has been poorly patched up and trusting that it'll be looked after. But if Freddie's going to trust anyone, she's going to trust Rosie. She can only hope he'll prove to her that her trust hasn't been misplaced. She can only hope that, once all of this is over, she'll end up with something worth showing for her efforts, instead of a heart so broken it's no good to her anymore, shattered twice over and never to beat properly again.
