Mrs. Porter Calling by A. J. Pearce
Emmy Lake is working at Woman's Friend magazine as the Reader and Advice Editor. While her husband Charles is serving in the RAF, Emmy is sharing a house with her BFF Bunty, and their friend Thelma and her children are taking the empty flat in their house. Everything is going as well as it can in the middle of a war, until the mag is taken over by the Honorable Mrs. Cressida Porter ("call me Egg") who has specific ideas about changing the magazine's format, content, and audience.
The third installment in the Emmy Lake series, warm, cozy, heartfelt. Good escapist reading for a hot summer day.
Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an eARC for review.
