London, 1942: Charlotte Fenimore is back home on a week's leave from the Women's Auxiliary Airforce. She had planned for a week of rest and recuperation. She hadn't planned to fall deeply in love with an irascible detective called Dan Chalmers, a severely wounded hero of Dunkirk who believed no woman would ever look at him again. DI Chalmers is in London to arrest a gang of dangerous East End criminals and root out corrupt police detectives at the Met - and his involvement with Charlotte brings her into serious danger. And then the plane flying Charlotte to the wilds of Scotland comes down in a storm... In a time of war, with danger around every corner, how can their relationship survive?… (more)

Charlotte Fenimore completes officer’s training and requests a post in London. It will give her an opportunity to visit with one of her best friend’s, Nancy and her family. While both of her friends have married, Charlotte intends to focus on her career in the WAAF’s. Then she meets Detective Inspector Dan Chalmers. He was injured at Dunkirk and believes that no woman will want him with his injuries. The chemistry between Charlotte and Dan is palpable. They begin dating, but Dan’s investigation into police corruption ends up with Charlotte in danger. Dan will do whatever it takes to keep Charlotte safe. Charlotte ends up flying off to Scotland. The plane goes down with Charlotte and the pilot lost in the wilds. Can the military find the downed plane? The Officer Girl in Blue by Fenella J. Miller is the 3rd book in The Girls in Blue. While The Officer Girl in Blue could be read as a standalone, I believe it is best read as part of the series. This will allow you to get to know all the characters and their backstories. I thought The Officer Girl in Blue contained good writing and developed characters. I like Charlotte who is spunky, smart, and resourceful. Dan is intelligent, dedicated, and handsome. The chemistry between the pair is obvious from the moment their eyes meet. I thought the author captured the time period and I enjoyed the use of the slang from that era. I did not, though, appreciate the foul language. I am glad we got to catch up with Nancy and Jane from the first two books in the series. I did feel that the side story involving Marion was unnecessary. I did not like how it was handled. The Officer Girl in Blue has suspense, danger, friendship, and romance. Those who like to read World War II romances, will enjoy The Officer Girl in Blue. The Officer Girl in Blue is a dramatic historical tale with corrupt cops, firm friends, blasting bombs, a disorganized desk, a plane predicament, messy mud, and a cheerful Christmas. ( )
