WWII has finally ended. Birmingham is welcoming home its menfolk, and a new chapter is beginning in Rachel Booker's life. Her husband has returned, and the family that struggled for survival throughout the war is now together. But family life settles into a routine and Rachel, unsatisfied, starts to yearn for more. Melly, her eldest daughter, grew up in the bombed-out streets of Birmingham and has never known anything other than the hungry ration years and supporting her mother and younger brother. But times are changing and Melly now has a fresh future ahead of her. She's determined to make the most of life and her greatest wish is to become a nurse. As the gloom of the 1940s passes and the promise of the 1950s dawns, a new world of opportunity opens up to Rachel and Melly - but with it comes new challenges and tough choices.
