Welcome Back to Dunbar's!

I'm writing this on Monday 15th - publication day for Dunbar's book 2, Hopeful Hearts at the Wartime Hotel.

One of the reasons I love writing books for you is that it gives me the chance to explore friendships and see my characters supporting one another through good times and bad. I think that women understand the importance of female bonds, and that, alongside our families, our friends are the most valuable people in our lives, the people we can turn to, no matter what.

Setting my stories in wartime gives me the chance to bring women together whose paths would never have crossed in peacetime. Kitty, Lily and Beatrice have been thrown together by circumstances beyond their control and have become true friends as a result of mutual respect and understanding. Life has changed considerably for all three of them and in Hopeful Hearts at the Wartime Hotel, they need one another’s trust and support more than ever. Theirs is a friendship that will last a lifetime.

If this is the first time you’ve met Kitty, Lily and Beatrice, I hope you’ll enjoy getting to know them and will soon feel involved in their lives. If you’ve met them before in A New Home at the Wartime Hotel, I hope you’ll love being back in their company.
