Will Levi be able to help Ava feel loved and treasured, even after the horrors they’ve each experienced on the battlefront?
Levi Collins farms with his father, Jack, in Indiana. When the Japanese bomb Pearl Harbor, he joins the Marines and finds himself in the middle of the worst fighting in the Pacific. After the Battle of Tarawa, he and his fellow Marines are sent to Hawaii for some rest and recuperation. But even the tropical paradise can’t erase the effects of the battles he’s faced in the Pacific.
Ava Winslow has always planned to be a nurse and help her father, Coren, in his private practice. As soon as World War II begins, she changes her plans, hoping to help injured soldiers on the battlefield. Instead, she’s sent to a hospital in Hawaii, where the wounded come to finish their recovery before they return home or to the front lines.
When Jack meets quiet, reserved Ava, he’s drawn to her calm strength and fierce determination to help injured soldiers, even if it means facing danger near the front lines of battle in the Pacific.
Will their love survive the wounds they receive, both seen and unseen? Will Levi be able to help Ava feel loved and treasured, even after the horrors they’ve each experienced on the battlefront?
