This is a story of love, war, and a heartfelt promise set in 1960s’ America and during the Vietnam War. Melissa and Jonathan are young and in love. They are destined to be together—or are they? The author cleverly weaves the story around the obstacles put in the way of true love, from obstinacy and parental dictation through to the horrors of war. The atrocities committed by the Vietcong are vividly described and the reader is left on the edge of their seat, knowing that so many young Americans lost their lives in this campaign and the innocent children caught in the deadly middle. The author explores the battles that both Jonathan and Melissa face. Will Jonathan survive the Vietnam War and be able to keep his promise to Melissa? Will Melissa win the war against her father and gain his blessing for her future?
