There’s no escape from the effects of war... It’s June 1914 and young Connie Lovell should be helping with the war effort. Instead, she applies for a job at the London Herald , where she meets the handsome editor Stephen Clayton. Nine years her senior, she knows her family won’t approve. She is helplessly drawn to him, and despite a past he won’t talk about, he is undeniably attracted to her. But as the war rages on, will Stephen be forced to enlist, and can their union survive the consequences?
