December 1941: 'Pearl Harbor has been bombed.' My husband, President Franklin D. Roosevelt's, voice shakes as he tells me the devastating news. In this heart-stopping moment, I'm determined to do whatever it takes to protect America, but will it be enough?
Eleanor Roosevelt takes a deep breath. She knew this day was coming but now that it's here she needs every ounce of courage to face it. She's stood by Franklin's side through thirty years of marriage and three terms in the White House but entering the war that's been raging across the world will be their greatest challenge yet.

She knows she needs to put aside the troubles in her own relationship for the sake of the country. But will the latest threat to her marriage finally tear her and Franklin apart?
The stakes are higher than they've ever been. This is a moment that history will never forget, and all eyes are on them. Will Eleanor succeed in her role as the president's wife and help to save her beloved country as well as her marriage? Or will tragedy strike before the war is won...?
From bestselling author Anna Stuart, comes an incredible and heartbreaking novel of one woman's bravery, determination and courage. Inspired by the life of Eleanor Roosevelt, this unputdownable WW2 novel is perfect for fans of Marie Benedict, Soraya M. Lane and Kate Quinn.
