Charlotte Hannigan and Elliot McIntyre had been in love with each other since they were nine and had met during unlikely circumstances. Now it’s 1941 and they couldn’t be more in love. Between the swing dancing, Frank Sinatra, and their undeniable love for each other, Charlotte and Elliot’s lives couldn’t be better. That is until Elliot decides he has been given a duty to serve his country, and enlists in the air corps. Now Charlotte must live with the idea that the man she loves may never come home and is constantly reminded by her condescending “friend” Francine Monroe, what an idiot she was for falling in love with him. Charlotte perseveres and she and Elliot keep in touch through letters and day dreams. The only problem is, Elliot’s best friend Donny Jacobs is hiding a secret that just may ruin the love that they have for each other. After Charlotte's father is suspected of murder and Donny's little girl goes missing, Donny threatens to share this devastating truth. Oh and lets not forget the day that changed history forever. Pearl Harbor. This threatens Elliot and Donny’s lives and causes untimely peril for hundreds of others, while Charlotte is waiting unaware, in anticipation. Find out if Charlotte and Elliot can hold on through the storm in my first novel, Life Happens-1941. ~Sorry if that was a little choppy.
