We can’t choose who we love. We can choose who we fight for. ‘A powerful story that proves how love itself requires courage’ Delia Owens, author of Where the Crawdads Sing ‘Storytelling at its best’ Sarah Winman ‘The perfect book club read’ AJ Pearce Ellen Parr has always been sure she never wanted children. But when she finds a young girl asleep and unclaimed at the back of a bus fleeing the Blitz in Southampton, everything she once believed is overturned. As she takes Pamela into her home, the little girl cracks open the past Ellen thought she had escaped and the future she thought she wanted, for in uncertain times it seems the only certainty is love. But with the end of the fighting comes the realization that Pamela was never hers to keep… We Must Be Brave is an epic and intensely moving novel about the ways we rescue one other, and the astonishing tenacity of the human heart. The historical fiction unfolds in a small, rural town during World War II, where Ellen Parr's life is forever changed by the unexpected arrival of a young girl. The story delves deep into the themes of fostering, adoption, and the complexities of relationships, painting a vivid picture of life during wartime. For fans of Kristin Hannah (The Great Alone), Fiona Valpy (The Season of Dreams), Jojo Moyes (The Giver of Stars), Kate Atkinson (Shrines of Gaiety), and Alice Winn (In Memoriam).
