A chance meeting in Liverpool will change Megan Lloyd's life in ways
she could never have imagined . . .
August, 1942. 21-year-old Megan Lloyd is determined to do her bit for
the war effort - and a chance encounter with an American army officer in
Liverpool gives her an idea of how to do just that. Appalled at the
plight of young women left pregnant and destitute following ill-fated
love affairs with passing sailors or American GIs, Megan determines to
establish a place of refuge for unmarried mothers - a plan which incurs
her father's intense disapproval.
But Megan finds herself unprepared for the challenges that lie ahead.
Trauma, drama, heartbreak and moments of great joy will follow - and in
the midst of it all Megan will find unexpected love.
