Summary:
Kiss the girls goodbye: December 31, 1939 was the first New Year’s Eve that anyone could remember that there hadn’t been crowds celebrating at midnight in Trafalgar Square. So begins 1940 for the waitresses at the Lyons Corner House at Marble Arch. Kiss the Girls Goodbye follows the lives of the five waitresses we met in Corner House Girls, observing their families, boyfriends, husbands, customers, and friends through the harrowing period of the Second World War. There are bombs and blackouts, curfews and rationing, romances and terrible losses, but through it all, come what may, the Corner House will be open for business.

Corner house girls: This story begins at the outset of the World War II, and revolves around the lives of six Lyons Corner House waitresses. Each girl has a different personality, different family background, and different experience of London in the Blitz. There are happy homes and less happy ones, there are brothers and lovers in the forces, there are children evacuated to the countryside, and there are relationships that end in romance and tragedy.

PS I love you: Following Corner House Girls and Kiss the Girls Goodbye, this is the third novel in the wartime saga about the girls who work at the Lyons Corner House in Marble Arch.
