A daughter of British nobility meets an unexpected suitor

When war breaks out in 1914, Lilly longs to do her part, but as the daughter of British nobility she’s expected to marry well. Instead she defies her family and enlists, landing herself close to the Western Front and her hearthrob, Robbie, a Scottish surgeon who grew up in poverty — most certainly not the sort of suitor Lilly’s parents had in mind for her. – Kristene Quan
