A heartwarming WWII historical from award-winning author Cara Putman
Evelyn is done with promises.
"Talk is cheap," Evelyn Happ declares. Her fiance broke up with her days before their scheduled wedding, and her father seems to specialize in breaking promises. So, in the midst of World War Two, when the Navy WAVES give her a chance to get out of Washington, DC, and contribute to the war effort, Evelyn can't leave fast enough.
Mark Miller isn't thrilled when the WAVES arrive to work on the navy's top secret project in Dayton, Ohio. He figures the distraction they cause doesn't justify the assistance they provide. That is until a certain beautiful ensign starts offering suggestions that may provide the breakthrough the engineers need to succeed in their mission.
When the actions of a spy put both Evelyn and Mark under suspicion, will the investigation make their relationship another casualty of war, or will it bring the birth of the true promise of love?
