Read in less than 24 hours - a sure sign of a good book! Lots of twists and turns, things you didn't expect to happen or vice versa things you thought would happen didn't! I was really concerned for Violet through the book; perhaps she could be the focus for another book in the series? Easy to read, good storyline, likeable characters. I hope there will be another in the series so we find out if the twins were ok and what happened during the remainder of the war period.

The Officer Girl in Blue by Fenella J. Miller is an excellent WWII-era historical fiction saga that is the third book in the excellent series: The Girls in Blue. I have now read all three books and loved every moment of it!

Each book in the series focusses on one of the group of three girlfriends while encompassing their shared struggles, close bonds, and describing the overall harsh times that affects the citizens of England during the War.

We have already read about Jane and Nancy, and now we are finishing up with Charlotte who is also part of the WAAF. I think I liked this book the best.

There is suspense, mystery, intrigue, crime, passion, twists and turns, and just an excellent narrative and character cast that really drew me in.

Charlotte’s story and her interactions and developing relationship with the equally intriguing DI Dan Chalmers is perfect. Their backstories, personalities, and chemistry really add to the overall plot of not only this book, but also for the series overall. I loved the pacing, subject matter, and of course the ending!

This is a must-read series for anyone that loves WWII historical fiction.

5/5 stars

Thank you NG and Aria & Aries for this wonderful arc and in return I am submitting my unbiased and voluntary review and opinion.

I am posting this review to my GR and Bookbub accounts immediately and will post it to my Amazon, Instagram, and B&N accounts upon publication.

Ive read and enjoyed the first two books in this series and I was so excited to read the third part. It can very easily be enjoyed as a standalone as each book us about one of the three girls that met in book one. This book is about Charlotte and it's the best one yet!

The story starts with her training up to become an officer in the WAAF. Charlotte is posted to London and spends the first week there in with Marion. On their first day they hear gun shots nearby and that's where they first meet DI Dan Chalmers.

What follows is a riveting read about murder, curuption in the police force, adventure and intertwined with a blossoming, slow burn romance. I loved the little catch up with the girls from the other books. It was sad to see the divide, where the rich could buy almost anything they wanted and the poor went without. I found the journey to Wick full of drama and quite the page turner to find out what happened. A really good read. I loved it.
