Chicago, 1944. Liz Stephens has little interest in attending a USO club
dance with her friends Betty and Julia. She doesn't need a flirtation
with a lonely serviceman when she's set to marry her childhood
sweetheart. Yet something happens the moment Liz glimpses Morgan
McClain. They share only a brief exchange--cut short by the soldier's
evident interest in Betty--but Liz can't forget him. Thus, when Betty
asks her to ghostwrite a letter to Morgan, stationed overseas, Liz
reluctantly agrees.
Thousands of miles away, Morgan struggles to adjust to the brutality of
war. His letters from Betty are a comfort, their soul-baring
correspondence a revelation to them both. While Liz is torn by her
feelings for a man who doesn't know her true identity, Betty and Julia
each become immersed in their own romantic entanglements. And as the war
draws to a close, all three will face heart-wrenching choices, painful
losses, and the bittersweet joy of new beginnings.
Beautifully rendered and deeply moving, Letters from Home is a story of
hope and connection, of sacrifices made in love and war--and the chance
encounters that change us forever.
