A sweeping, tenderhearted love story, this novel tells the tale of two families during World War II, connected by the shy, irresistible Beatrix. In 1940, as German bombs rain down on London, working-class parents Millie and Reginald Thompson make a heart-wrenching decision to send their eleven-year-old daughter to America for safety. Arriving in Boston, Bea feels scared and alone until she meets the Gregory family, who warmly welcome her into their lives. She quickly adapts to their affluent lifestyle, forming bonds with their sons, William and Gerald, and finds herself thriving in this new environment. As Bea embraces summers in Maine and new friendships, her old life in England begins to fade. However, when the war ends, she must return to London, leaving behind the life she has come to love. The transition back is challenging, as memories of her American family linger, tugging at her heart while she attempts to forge her own path in a post-war world. Navigating between her two worlds, the story unfolds with themes of grace, heartache, forgiveness, and love, capturing Bea's journey of self-discovery and the profound connections that shape her life.
