Anna Whitaker has always been the optimist of her small town, the daughter of a reverend with a heart full of faith and dreams of a simple, happy life. But when whispers of the Great War reach their quiet community, everything begins to unravel.
Her brother Thomas shocks the family by enlisting, leaving behind a torn household and a devastated sister. In an impulsive act of love and desperation, Anna joins the Red Cross and secretly follows him overseas.
There, on the war-torn fields of France, Anna discovers a world of suffering-and a bond she never expected. James Mercer, Thomas's loyal best friend and the hardworking son of the town drunk, is by her side. He is strong, protective, and achingly familiar. But grief and guilt have hardened his heart, and he has turned away from the God Anna clings to.
When tragedy strikes, Anna and James are left with nothing but each other. In the midst of bloodied trenches and broken prayers, their fragile love is tested by war, faith, and the question that haunts them both:
Can hope survive when everything else is lost?
