The Lieutenant's Girl
War was coming. Elizabeth knew nothing outside of her sheltered life in Honolulu, Hawaii. But she knew she wanted to help. Defying her father’s wishes, she trained to be a nurse and as war began to tear apart everything she’d ever loved, her home was about to become hell on earth.
Elizabeth expected long nights, festering wounds, men too shaken by the war to speak. She didn’t expect to fall in love, but the moment she saw the handsome young pilot with the sparkling blue eyes, everything changed. Now, everything she did wasn’t just for the sake of doing the right thing – it was about fighting for a world where their love had a chance.
But when the bombs rain down, they are forced apart. Elizabeth is sent to Normandy with the Army Nurse Corps while Everett flies life-threatening missions across the world chasing down the enemy. And then Everett’s letters stop coming.
The world is not what Elizabeth thought, and the things she sees will change her. Does Elizabeth have the strength to survive and help others through the most devastating war the world has ever seen? Will she see it to the end, and if she does, will the boy she fell in love with in frangipani-scented sunshine find his way back to her?
An unforgettable and unputdownable World War Two novel about the strength of ordinary people and the power of love in the darkest of times. A stunning, heartbreaking page-turner for fans of The Girls of Pearl Harbor , The Alice Network and The Tattooist of Auschwitz .
