Every Time You Say Goodbye (Southampton Sagas)

As the war rages on, one woman finds that even in the darkest of times, happiness can be found in the most unexpected places.

Southampton, 1943.

After two years of courting the stable and sensible Brian Freeman, factory worker Kitty does what is expected of her and accepts his proposal.

But married life is not what Kitty expected — she isn’t in love with Brian, nor he with her. And Kitty longs for the type of burning passion she sees on the silver screen.

Then Brian is called up to serve his country, and Kitty is left to navigate her loneliness and stifling domestic life alone.

As the war presses on and troops pour into Southampton on the way to France, Kitty meets Lieutenant Jeff Ryder, a kind and charismatic American soldier who soon makes her realise what true love and passion is.

Will Kitty find the true love and happy ending she believed out of reach?

An emotional and unputdownable WW2 story about finding the courage to confront the most difficult truths about love and fulfillment in a time of upheaval.
