An Army nurse in Hawaii grapples with wounded soldiers and a broken heart as America enters WWII in a novel of “nonstop action, romance, and suspense” (Publishers Weekly).
A USA Today Bestseller
November, 1941. Though she’s never seen the ocean before, Eva Cassidy has her reasons for making the crossing to Hawaii aboard the SS Lurline. Newly enlisted as an Army Corps nurse, she is stunned by the splendor of the Pacific, and even more so by Lt. Clark Spencer, a man who clearly has secrets of his own. Though she is drawn to him, Eva’s troubled past prevents her from following her heart.
Though Clark warns Eva that America will be drawn into the war, nothing could prepare them for the surprise attack that will change the world they know. In the wake of the Pearl Harbor bombing, Eva and her fellow nurses take on the immense duty of keeping the American wounded alive. But the danger that finds Eva threatens everything she holds dear. Amid the chaos and heartbreak, she must decide whom to trust and how far she will go to protect those she loves.
Customer Reviews
The Lieutenants Nurse
I loved The Lieutenants Nurse and was left wanting more story. As a fan of historical fiction I’m always looking for new authors and Sara Ackerman is now in my IPad library as a go to, especially her series on the role of women in the Hawaiian WW II war, highlighting the challenges, discomfort and discrimination they faced every day as they contributed to our victory.
AMAZING
This book truly is amazing and made me fall in love with the characters. It is a historical fiction so do remember some things are fake. But overall I would rate this very good. This is actually my second time reading it I read it a few years ago and loved it I didn’t remember it and fell in love with it again.
