1941. The world is at war. Women, children, soldiers, they're all victims of the countless bombings and useless shootings. Cities are being destroyed, and lifes are ending. In the midst of all this chaos, in Statham, Georgia, two people stumble upon each other, and fall madly in love. They're soon convinced they are soulmates, but sadly, the circumstances don't allow them to be together. In these times of terror, while they are miles apart, they write to each other, in the hopes to give each other some strength. Years after the war ends, they find each other at last.
2015, seventy years after the war ended, writer Amanda Lovestone is desperately searching for a story. Her publisher has been on her back since the release of her last novel, and now she is forced to write a historical novel to celebrate seventy years of peace in Europe. After searching for months, she finally finds someone worth visiting, ninety-five year old Rebekah Abrahams. Even though she is very old (probably the oldest woman Amanda's ever met) she is still very much active, and loves to tell Amanda her story. At Amanda's very first visit, Rebekah pulls out a box full of letters, love letters she had received and sent. The letters tell the story of Rebekah's life, and tell the tale of her tragic romance. Slowly but surely, Amanda sees a chance to share Rebekah's story with the world.

"Wait Leah!"
I wanted to tell her that she is not like a sister to me and that I love her, but something stopped me. The hope that shone in her eyes stopped me.
War is unpredictable. The outcomes are unpredictable. If I were to tell her the truth and we were to fall in love, wouldn't there be more risks.
I'll be worried about her constantly, as she'll be about me. If I were to get injured in the field, she will have to spend her life taking care of me. If I were to die, wouldn't I hurt her more than now.
