Light a Penny Candle by Maeve Binchy

Now back in print--the magic of bestselling author Maeve Binchy's unforgettable debut novel, LIGHT A PENNY CANDLE! The chaotic events of World War II find a shy young English girl in Ireland under the care of the wild and boisterous O'Connor family. It is through them that she meets the young lady destined to become her best friend...and together they will endure years of change, joy, sorrow, soaring dreams, bitter betrayals, and an unbreakable bond that nothing could tear asunder.
Synopsis
Elizabeth Whyte was the shy daughter of a troubled English marriage. Aisling O'Connor was the bold daughter of a boisterous Irish family. They were so very different, and yet their lives were linked--in peace, in war, in a world swept in change--and both in love with the same elusive man.
