Colleen carries readers to the 1940s Deep South to follow a young woman as she embraces the changing roles of women in WWII America and dreams of being swept away, despite strong ties to her family farm.
Raised in the foothills of the Ozarks and schooled in traditional values, Colleen Mobley longs for a life beyond the red clay, men in coveralls, and women in aprons that she grew up with-and when she meets Yankee soldier John Langford, she's in seventh heaven. But she's brought back to earth when John is called to serve abroad in Salerno.
As he heads off to war, Colleen travels to Memphis to study nursing. Her experiences at school are riddled with challenges-but none as great as the challenge brought on by a single phone call. Just before leaving for Thanksgiving break, John's father calls to tell Colleen that John was killed in the line of duty.
With her heart broken and her dreams for the future shattered, can Colleen regain the momentum to move forward? The answer to this question comes with another unexpected phone call...
A romantic saga steeped in Southern culture, Colleen is sure to sweep you off your feet.
