Unbeknown to the major, Janet has instead sworn her love to a seriously injured infantryman, Sergeant Lou Morrissey.

Behind the book

This book was based on letters my sister-in-law's mother wrote during WWII. Though it's been fictionalized in part in order to create a story, most of the events are true. Aside from the main characters, the names have been changed. Enjoy!
