Description

Kaisa realized she'd never felt like this before. This was love. The stuff she'd read about in books since she was a teenager; the films she'd watched. This was how Ryan O'Neal felt about Ali MacGraw in Love Story, and Barbra Streisand about Robert Redford in, The Way We Were. Kaisa grinned. She'd wanted to pose the same question to the Englishman that Katie had to Hubbell, 'Do you smile ALL the time?'

When a young Finnish student, Kaisa, is invited to the British Embassy cocktail party in Helsinki to celebrate a Royal Navy visit to Finland, she's not looking for romance. After all, her future has been carefully planned: she's to complete her degree, marry her respectable, well-to-do Finnish fiancé Matti, and live happily ever after.

Enter the dashing Peter, a newly qualified Navy Officer. Like a moth to a flame, Kaisa falls head over heels in love.

Kaisa and Peter embark on a long-distance relationship, but at the height of the Cold War, while the Englishman chases Russian submarines, Kaisa is stuck in Finland, a country friendly with the Soviet Union.

Can they trust each other? Can their love go the distance?

The Englishman is the first novel in a series of Finnish and British contemporary Navy fiction books.

If you liked An Officer and a Gentleman, or enjoy Nordic fiction, you'll love this stylish love story by the Finnish author Helena Halme.
