Agnes is comforted by the loving arms of her caring train driver fiancé Ted. And Sally could not be happier with her talented surgeon boyfriend at her side, especially since hes risked his life to visit her at the stroke of midnight on New Years Eve.
For Tillys mother, Olive, the cold heart that had been frozen since her partner died, is beginning to thaw. But the man she pines for is betrothed to another. The net curtains on the well-to-do Article Row have been twitching, and prying eyes have seen the way shes been looking at Sergeant Dawson
When the clock strikes midnight at the Hammersmith Palais, three couples stare deeply into their lovers eyes. The confident and stunningly beautiful East Ender, Dulcie, is left alone once more, abandoned by her boyfriend at this most precious of precious moments.
But the women of No. 13 Article Row know that joy is short lived in the London of 1941. Its a treacherous place, especially for the tender-hearted. As Valentines Day approaches, the perils of war threaten life as they know it and all matters of the heart.
