The Promise:
A World War 2 Historical Romance Novel
by Kathleen Harryman
How far would you go to keep a promise?
In the heat of battle, one man's promise to another will be tested.
September 1939 – As Britain is gripped by the fear and uncertainty of war, Tom Armitage stands to gain the one thing that he never thought possible - his freedom.
Rosie Elliot sees her future crumbling to dust as Will Aarons leaves Whitby with Jimmy Chappell to fight in the war. As she begins work at The Turnstone Convalescent Home, Rosie finds something she thought she had lost. Friendship. But friendship soon turns to love. Can this new love replace Will?
This is not an ordinary love story.
It's a story of love, loss, courage, and honour.
Of promises that must be kept or risk losing everything you've ever held dear.
An excerpt from POPPY FIELDS by Kathleen Harryman:
I pray upon the fields of red,
Where the poppies grow,
That one day, we learn to live,
In a world of love,
Where weapons are replaced,
With kindness, and understanding,
That we learn to accept our differences,
To truly remember, each and every life lost,
Given for peace, given in hope, given for all of us,
Given, so we could be free.
