Product Description
It is April 1939 and unaware that the German war machine is advancing towards the Channel Islands, seventeen-year-old Meg Colivet and her sister are enjoying a holiday in Oxford with their aunt. Here Meg meets charismatic German undergraduate Rayner Weiss and the couple fall passionately in love. But all too soon, Britain is at war with Germany, Guernsey has been occupied and Meg's family home requisitioned by the German army.

Format:Hardcover
Lily Baxter (Dilly Court), knows Guernsey well and this comes across in 'We'll Meet Again'. It is well researched and written, drawing you in to the lives of the characters. I rarely read romantic fiction but I really enjoyed this novel. All the names are genuine Guernsey names and anyone who knows the Island at all will recognise it within these pages. It brings into focus the problems and dangers experienced by the people during the Occupation, the fact that many of the German's were just soldiers doing their duty and were not all bad. Anyone who enjoyed Potato Peel Pie should read this one, to be honest it is a far more accurate portrayal of the times.
Fans of her other books (Dilly/Lily) will not be disapointed and I have a feeling that this new series set during WW2 will bring her many more.

Yet another book that I couldn't put down! Each chapter captivates and wants you to read the next... With characters brought to life by Lily's superb imagination, I really felt that I was bring drawn into War time England. Written by the same author who brought us the Dilly Court novels, Dilly (or Lily!) is now bringing to War time England to life. A superb book that I thoroughly recommend! :)
