Heartbreak for Two by Maysie Greig




I actually found this book at a local thrift bookstore. When I went to add it to my “To-read” list on Goodreads, there was no book listed, so I had to make my own entry. There was a different titled that it was published in England and there is no entry for that title either.

Goodreads blurb;

“When Jacqueline Brooks was detailed to chauffeur Major Wilson’s car, it was poetic justice. Major Wilson was the son of her late father’s chauffeur. Then Roderick Tresmond, son of Lord Mandon asked her to marry him. Simply by explaining that he was not in love with anyone else at the time and it would be a “suitable” marriage. Having accepted a proposal by one of these men she was faced with a decision of choosing a man she thought she loved and the man who needed her. Maysie Grieg’s story of Jackie’s disillusionment and love in wartime England is told with poignant tenderness”


This book was a good hearted light read, it reminded me of a movie one would see from the 1940/50’s. It’s based in World War II London during the London blitz. It was an easy read, predictable outcome, but definitely an easy summer-book-at-the beach type. Definitely would recommend to the hopeless romantic or historical pieces.
