Produktbeschreibung

A love forged in a moment, tested by distance, and forever etched in memory. This is the story of a promise made on a pier, and the unwavering heart that kept it alive.

In the spring of 1990, two lonely hearts collide in a Utica bus station. James Lafache, an eighteen-year-old orphan with no family and no future, is hours early for the bus to basic training. Mary Louise, a bright-eyed waitress with dreams of becoming a teacher, offers him a smile and a listening ear. A single afternoon on a sun-dappled pier sparks a connection that deepens with every heartfelt letter they share-through the rigors of Fort Benning, the sands of Saudi Arabia, and the terrifying onset of Desert Storm.

James finds the family he never had in the Army, and a brother in arms in Tim Richards. But his heart belongs to Mary Louise.

From the dusty confines of a desert tent, James's letters are a lifeline of love and fear. Mary Louise's replies are a fortress of hope, built against the growing worries of her family and the ominous news reports. They promise each other a future, clinging to the memory of a blue bow in her hair and the dream of a simple life together.

But war has its own timetable. When the ground offensive begins, a final, hopeful letter is sent: "Don't worry, but I won't be able to write for a while."

This sweeping novel is a hallmark of heartfelt storytelling. It is a tribute to the brave men and women who serve far from home and the devoted loved ones who wait, hope, and pray. It's a story of first love, profound sacrifice, and the resilience of the human spirit, asking: Can a love born in a single afternoon be strong enough to span an ocean, a war, and a lifetime?

Perfect for fans of emotional romance, military fiction, and stories that celebrate the enduring power of love and memory.
