Another excellent read by Molly Green. I love to read about heat happened at Bletchley Park during the war and this didn't disappoint. Full of love and friendship, a little confusion and mystery and you have a great book.

The second book in the Bletchley Park Girls series and it's a winner. I read the first but you absolutely do not have to in order to enjoy this one as a standalone. The setting is wonderful and I like that this story had a bit more meat to it. There is a bit of drama and the characters are complex. However, we get our happily ever after. I hope there will be more books in this series.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this book!

I was hooked from the beginning of this story. Following Rosie's story was both heartbreaking and heartwarming. I loved the twists and turns. It really opens your eyes to what the people at Bletchley Park endured during their employment there. There were some really lovely characters who were so helpful and supportive of each other. This was a truly uplifting read.

Everything you’ve come to expect from a Molly Green novel. A little predictable, but still satisfying. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the sneak peek.

Following hard on the heels of Summer Secrets at Bletchley Park, we have Molly Green's latest; A Winter Wedding at Bletchley Park. It is a slightly different proposition to the former novel and I would say it has a stronger romance aspect. Hard to think in this day and age, what lengths people went to hide an out of wedlock pregnancy but strangely enough, this novel caused me to think that I've heard something similar before but many decades ago. Anyway, it seemed a very practical solution for the times when this novel was set, albeit very harsh for the mother. Molly Green likes to weave historical aspects in to her novels and I would have liked a little more of it. Although the discussion between Rose and Hugo about how disseminated intelligence was collated, indexed and forwarded by teleprinter was so opposite to the 'need to know' mantra of Bletchley Park, that it stood out like a sore thumb. As a novel with an excellent tear jerker romance at its core I would have to give it five stars but because of its Bletchley Park aspect, I will deduct one star for insufficient historical and technical detail.
Additionally, I have never heard of plaice served with horseradish sauce but maybe it was a war time favourite, I prefer tartare.

I enjoy books set around BP and learning more about the amazing work that was undertaken there. This title once again helped me learn something new both about BP and some other true historical facts (Barbara Cartland being another!)

I sadly found the main character a bit wishy washy in parts and wanted her to be more assertive. The storyline was sometimes easy to see where it would go but it was nice easy reading though on one of the hottest weekends of the year and finished in a day.
