p>She had big dreams. But will war, tragedy, and naïveté ruin her aspirations?

America, the 1940s. Margaret Rose longs to escape her family's poverty. So against her domineering father's wishes, the determined young woman elopes with an older man. But shortly after the US enters WWII, her grand ambitions sink when her husband's ship is torpedoed.

Training to become a nurse to give herself a future, Margaret's despair deepens when she discovers she's pregnant and must quit to have the baby. And now without income to support a child, the desperate widow marries a man who takes her far from home... and into disaster.

Will Margaret rise above catastrophic misfortune and create the life she deserves?
