Down an English Lane by Margaret Thornton

During the Second World War, Maisie Jackson was evacuated to a small market town deep in the Yorkshire Dales, and began a new life there. It is now 1945 and Maisie is 15 years old. She has been corresponding with Bruce Tremaine, while he has been fighting with the RAF, and Maisie believes herself to be in love with him, and indeed, him with her. But when he returns on VE Day, he is not alone. Maisie is devastated and her life is turned upside down. Though Maisie finishes school and eventually settles down, she never entirely forgets about Bruce and perhaps he has never really forgotten her either?
