Description
Blending gripping historical realism with emotional intimacy, Only You is a tribute to enduring love, forged through war, loss, and the resilience of the human spirit.
In Only You, R.F. Eisen weaves a tale of love and commitment set against the backdrop of World War II. As the war rages on, two lovers, John and Ellen, find their lives torn asunder by chaos, casting seeds of doubt and despair.
When a hurricane swamps the USS Warrington, knocking John Ridgeway- "Ridge" to his friends-and his fellow sailors overboard, their lives in imminent danger from sharks and exposure, John keeps faith by remembering the woman he left stateside. Meanwhile, Ellen, his new bride, awaits word from her beloved. The couple remain eager to embark upon a life together, yet world events keep them apart.
Throughout their separation, Ellen and John encounter obstacles that a less resilient love could not endure. With meticulous historical detail, Only You immerses readers in a sweeping tale of courage, sacrifice, and the transcendent power of love that resonates for these troubled, modern times.
Perfect for fans of historical fiction and wartime romance, Only You delivers a heartfelt journey through love, loss, and perseverance that will resonate with anyone who believes in the power of hope across time and distance.
