Not for the first time, her mother has run off with a dodgy-looking bloke, leaving Pixie to pay the rent and fend for herself. Pixie, along with her best friend Rita, Em, the factory overseer, and the rest of the girls are making the most of the war while trying to stay alive.

Happiness seems like a thing of the past. Little does she know that there are plenty of surprises waiting for her good ones at that. Love may be closer than she thinks."
