A sweeping, tenderhearted love story unfolds as two families navigate the challenges of World War II across the Atlantic, centered on the shy young woman who connects them both. In 1940 London, working-class parents Millie and Reginald Thompson make the heart-wrenching decision to send their eleven-year-old daughter, Beatrix, to America for safety. Arriving in Boston, Bea is met by the Gregory family, who welcome her into their affluent lifestyle. As she adjusts to her new surroundings, Bea forms close bonds with the Gregory brothers, William and Gerald, filling a void in their lives. Gradually, she finds comfort in her new family, embracing summers in Maine and friendships that make her previous life in England feel distant. However, when the war ends, Bea must return to London, leaving behind the life she has come to cherish. The memories of her American family linger, complicating her efforts to move forward and find her own path in love and life. As Bea navigates her dual existence, the narrative beautifully captures themes of grace, heartache, forgiveness, and the enduring impact of love across distances.
