When she captures the heart of Joseph, the hunk with the dimpled smile, quick wit, and energetic enthusiasm, she thinks she's buttoned up her future. Creating a loving family with Joseph would be a dream come true.As the young lovers reach for happiness and security, their naivety, impulsive choices, and the challenges of World War II put a snag in their plans.

She'll need to draw upon her strength to stitch together a life of love while ripping out the anger that nearly strangles her heart, keeping her from a second chance at love.
