Entering the era of 1930, social status was one of the biggest thing that set people apart. Though it's hard to separate people when they're deeply in love like Vienna Morrissey and Liam Worthington. Ever since these two were nothing but two little children, adventures were all they seek and they officially marked a white lighthouse overlooking the vast ocean as their playhouse.
With years that continued to live on and time that continued to tick, Vienna and Liam grew even deeper in love. But what could they do when one was the daughter of an elite businessman and the other only a son of a farmer whom hardly anybody paid their mind to? They thought as long as they were together, nothing could set them apart but boy, were they wrong ... The year 1939 came, and World War II took Liam away from Vienna.
Will their love stand strong being thousands of miles apart? And will faith bring these two love-birds together once again? Can a lighthouse shine through an era of darkness, and be a beacon of hope?
