Women can be heroes. When twenty-year-old nursing student Frances “Frankie” McGrath hears these words, it is a revelation. Raised in the sun-drenched, idyllic world of Southern California and sheltered by her conservative parents, she has always prided herself on doing the right thing. But in 1965, the world is changing, and she suddenly dares to imagine a different future for herself. When her brother ships out to serve in Vietnam, she joins the Army Nurse Corps and follows his path.

I have loved all of Kristen Hannah’s books but this book has moved me beyond words. My heart goes out to all who have served, suffered and died😢❤️

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 209
Sixteen-year-old Alice is spending the summer in Paris, but she isn't there for pastries and walks along the Seine. When her grandmother passed away two months ago, she left Alice an apartment in France that no one knew existed. An apartment that has been locked for more than 70 years. Alice is determined to find out why the apartment was abandoned and why her grandmother never once mentioned the family she left behind when she moved to America after World War II. With the help of Paul, a charming Parisian student, she sets out to uncover the truth.

This was a very moving story. I am so amazed by the courage of the people who fought against the tyranny of the nazis.

This was a very moving story. I was amazed by the courage and determination of the the individuals who joined the resistance. I also liked Alic’s determination in uncovering her family’s history.
