Summary

They watched their sons, their brothers, and their husbands enlist to fight a growing menace across the seas.

And when their nation asked, they answered the call as well …

Virginia longs to find a purpose beyond others' expectations

Helen is driven by a loneliness money can't fulfill

Rosa is desperate to flee her in-laws' rules

Jean hopes to prove herself in a man's world

Under the storm clouds of destruction that threaten America during the early 1940s, this unlikely gathering of women will experience life in sometimes starling new ways as their beliefs are challenged and they struggle toward a new understanding of what love and sacrifice truly mean.

War time changes everything. This story brought tears and hope. A great understanding of different personalities and challenges in life. And a desire to continue to live in Gods will, forgive and find peace and comfort in His everlasting love

Challenging

I loved the story the detail and how the characters were so alive… the interesting perceptions of people in that era were enlightening.

Connection with the characters

A wonderful reminder of seeking out what God's purposes for our lives are. Themes of friendship, loyalty, love, racial prejudice are masterfully woven together through the vastly contrasting stories of 4 different women. Lynn Austin is superb at creating characters whom everyone can relate to and identify their troubles with. Amazing narration!

An absolute joy to read
