Narrado por: Laurel Lefkow

Don't miss this brand-new WWII historical novel, perfect for fans of Anna Stuart and Daisy Wood.

The Philippines, 1941. Rose Williams arrives in Manila on her first assignment as a US Army nurse, enthralled by the new environment and its promise of adventure. Although worlds away from the land she grew up in, Rose feels connected to her father, who worked in the Philippines before he died.

War seems like a distant possibility as Rose takes midnight dips in a warm sea with the other nurses, explores secret corners of the island, and falls in love with a locally stationed US Army officer.

But when Japan bombs Manila, the nurses’ lives change. Torn away from the man she loves, Rose faces constant threat, not only to her life, but from those around her she thought she could trust…

Will Rose and those close to her survive in the turmoil of war?

Outstanding Historical Novel

This book was one of the best I have listen to in an long time. Historical novels are some of my favorite books to listen to on Audible. Rose's experiences as a nurse on the Philippines shortly before and during World War II were both heartbreaking and uplifting. The love story between Rose and David was exquisite. The narrator was the perfect choice for the book. I hope to find more books by this talented author.

Brave Ladies

This story was so inspiring, heartbreaking and so many other emotions. I loved it! The nurses were amazing in so many ways. They epitomized "the greatest generation" !
