Description

The Korean War destroyed their plans, but the battle at home may shatter their hearts…

Laura Beth Walters fell in love with Joe McCall when she was six years old. Now she counts the days until Joey graduates from college so they can marry and begin their life together. But the Korean War rips their neatly laid plans to shreds. Instead of a college fraternity, Joey joins a platoon. Laura Beth trades a traditional wedding for a quick trip to the courthouse.

The couple endures the hardship of separation, but the true battle begins when Joey returns home. Their marriage is tested almost beyond endurance as Laura struggles to accept the tragedy thrown in their path. Joey watches as the woman who has kept him anchored slowly crumbles. With the same steadfastness his wife has always shown him, he faces the invisible enemy with the heart of a soldier. He will fight anyone or anything…for the love of Laura Beth.

Advance Praise

"This was a beautiful gem of a story about a young couple in a small town, and the love they share which sustains them through the harsh times of war and loss and life's struggles."

Goodreads Review

"This was a well-written tale that will have you weeping and filled with warm-fuzzies. In Aubrey's signature style, the story is based on real-life characters, and that adds a layer to the story that you have a hard time finding in other writers."
