"A solider will fight long and hard for a bit of colored ribbon."-Napoleon Bonaparte The world is currently amid a second world war, one bigger and more disastrous than has ever been seen before. Harry Styles is drafted into the British Navy at the young age of nineteen. Thrown into the jarring world of war, he learns what true fear, courage, bravery, friendship, and love is.

It's 1940 and Harry Styles is about to leave for war. But just as he's about to set off, he meets someone who makes him second guess his decision. Rose Walker wasn't looking for love--in fact, she thought she'd already found it. She never thought she would find someone that she loved more than dance. It was her mind, body, and soul. Every pore seeped with pirouettes and perfect turns. But when she runs into a young soldier at a USO show, her entire world shifts. Dance isn't the center of her universe any longer. But with a bloody war standing in between them, will their brand new love survive? {inspired by tattooed heart -- ariana grande}
