INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR JENNIE L. MORRIS - A CLEAN, HISTORICAL ROMANCE SET IN THE AFTERMATH OF THE GREAT WAR.


Minerva, Ohio 1919


The mortar rounds and trenches of the Great War echo in Joe Conley's head. Returned home a hero, he is a great thespian. Inside, an imposter lurks. His heart ripped from his ribcage by the savage gallantry of battle.


Sally Smith scrapes by out of necessity. The village's curious introvert, she applies her gardening skills to her advantage, selling sugared flower petals to the local bakery, café, and mercantile to decorate cakes and teas.


School cohorts, Sally and Joe, despised each other. The war hero, a changeling by circumstance, discovers a friendship without demands from the distinctive woman. And Sally, finally, feels the comfort of companionship.
