That is, until her chance encounter with charming infantryman Morgan McClain at a USO dance in Chicago. Their deep connection feels mutual to Liz, but to her dismay, her bombshell roommate, Betty, is the one who promises to write the deploying soldier. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSinger Betty Cordell delights in the prospect of a dashing serviceman filling her life with adventure, marital bliss, and societal circles outranking her modest roots. It only makes sense for her to beg Liz for help penning an eloquent letter to Morgan, now bound for a dangerous front. After all, she's certain the beauty of Liz's ghostwritten prose would ensure a courtship as enviable as their roommate Julia's relationship with her beloved sailor-and Betty is right, though not how she foresees. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLikewise, Julia Renard's betrothal is more complicated than it appears. When tempting opportunities arise, the future she always envisioned as a devoted wife and mother risks derailment. And yet, as the Allies edge toward victory, every person-through heart-wrenching choices and life-altering letters-will discover within themselves profound courage, bittersweet hope, and the true meaning of home . . . \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"A gripping and memorable story, Letters from Home is a timeless lesson in love and loss and the moments that shape our lives.\" \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e-Pam Jenoff, \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ebestselling author of \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Lost Girls of Paris\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKristina McMorris\u003c\/b\u003e is a \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling author and recipient of more than twenty national literary awards.
