In the autumn of 1941, rumors of war whisper through Rosey Corner.
The town practically vibrates in anticipation, as if it is holding
its breath. But for Kate Merritt, it seems life is letting out a
prolonged sigh. As Kate watches her sister marry the man Kate has
loved since she was fifteen, her heart is silently breaking. And
even the attentions of Jay Tanner, the handsome best man, can't
draw her interest.
Then suddenly, Pearl Harbor changes everything. Kate's friends are
rushing to get married before the boys go off to war. The
newspapers talk of women making airplanes and bombs. Everyone in
town begins rolling bandages, planting victory gardens, collecting
scrap metal. Kate finds herself drawn to Jay in surprising ways,
and when he enlists she can hardly breathe worrying about him
getting killed. Could she truly be in love with him? And if she is,
will she ever see him again?
In her gentle and textured style, Ann Gabhart tells a timeless
story of love, sacrifice, and longing that will grip the heart and
stir the spirit. Fans of "Angel Sister "will be thrilled to see
Kate Merritt all grown up. New readers will find that Ann Gabhart
weaves in "Small Town Girl" a beautiful story that will touch their
hearts and win their loyalty.
