''A heart-warming and affecting tale.'' - Woman''s Weekly

1946: The war might be over but, for the Gilby family, there are still battles to be fought at home . . .

For both the city of Birmingham and the Gilby family, the war years have been a time of great change. With her husband, Len, having left her for another woman, Ann Gilby is finally free to follow her heart. While the neighbours may be scandalised by having a divorcee in their midst, Ann is determined to rise above the local gossip and make a happy home with her former sweetheart, Tom - the father of her youngest child.

Meanwhile, daughters Joy and Sheila are lucky enough to have their menfolk back home. But Joy''s husband, Alan, has returned home a broken man from his experiences in a Japanese prisoner of war camp. And Sheila''s husband, Kenneth, is finding his wartime adventures and travels have made Birmingham feel small by comparison.

And then there''s Ann''s youngest child, Martin, who is still coming to terms with learning who his real father is - as well as having secrets of his own . . .

From Annie Murray, the bestselling author of Secrets of the Chocolate Girls and Wartime for the Chocolate Girls: Homecoming for the Chocolate Girls is the heartfelt and dramatic conclusion to this gritty family saga about love, war and chocolate . . .

''A portrait of four generations of a Birmingham family as they struggle to rebuild their lives in the aftermath of World War Two. With intimately drawn characters grappling with emotional dramas, this is a writer at the top of her game.'' - Joanna Toye, author of The Shop Girls
