Letters To Alice
About this ebook
Bristol, 1941: Alice Watts leaves the shell-shocked city for her new life as a Land Girl on Home Farm. It’s a completely different from her quiet old world, but she’s determined to do her part.
And the back-breaking work is made bearable with the help from her two new friends – bold, outspoken Fay and quiet, guarded Evie – and the letters that arrive from her childhood friend, Sam.
To Alice, Sam was always more than just a friend, but as the son of her wealthy employer, she never dared dream he could be more... But at least ever letter brings reassurance that he’s still alive and fighting on the frontline... Because it’s when all goes quiet on the letter front that nothing seems certain and it’s a reminder of how life – and hearts – are so fragile.
A tale of true courage and the power of sheer determination, this un-put-downable WWII set saga is filled with warmth, humour and heart-wrenching emotion.
Perfect for fans of Nadine Dorries, Katie Flynn and Dilly Court.

About the author
Born in Bristol of Welsh parentage, Rosie James lived in Somerset and was always a compulsive writer, her early enthusiasms kept alive by winning the occasional childhood prize, and much later by seeing her articles, short stories and romantic novels published. She was a trained singer, and as a lyric coloratura soprano, her roles included those in opera, operetta and oratorio. She enjoyed theatre and eating out with friends, entertaining regularly at home – and when her children and grandchildren visited, the party really got going. Rosie James passed away peacefully in March 2021 leaving a beloved family who are immensely proud of her literary achievements.
