A blackout-darkened street. A crowded train platform. A photograph carried into danger, and a love that holds fast through every "if." I'm Gracie Shaw, and I write Second World War romance about the extraordinary love stories born in the most testing years the world has known — for readers who love a sweeping, emotional wartime saga. My stories live on the home front and the front line alike: in land-girl fields and factory floors, in the ache of a letter long delayed and the joy of one that finally comes. My heroines kept the world turning while they waited and worked; my heroes carried their sweethearts' photographs into the dark. War sharpens everything — fear, faith, and most of all love — and I write the kind that endures separation, loss, and long uncertainty. Deeply emotional and always clean, these stories earn their happy endings with a tear or two along the way. If you love a wartime romance that honours those who lived it, take my hand. Inside you'll find wartime sweethearts, separated lovers, second-chance reunions, friends to lovers, and devotion that outlasts the longest goodbye.
