One woman’s journey to escape her past and make a new future in a world undergoing huge change. November, 1941. Eva Cassidy has reasons for making the crossing to Hawaii, and they run a lot deeper than escaping a harsh Michigan winter.

Clark Spencer, a man to whom she is drawn but who clearly has secrets of his own. As an army intelligence officer, Clark knows that the United States won’t be able to hold off joining the war for long, but nothing can prepare them for the surprise attack that will change the world they know.
