The beginning of this book where a woman goes to a doctor to get a certificate of her 'intactness' made me wonder what kind of book this was. But I enjoyed it, many characters, who at sometimes get confusing, all figure out in the end. Some of them will pull at your heartstrings. It is also a good little history lesson the first brave women who reported from a war zone-today's female media should read and learn. This is a story of the US right before it entered WWII, and London, which was enduring an endless attack of bombs by the Nazis. Good historical fiction, with some romance thrown in, but not so much it gets icky.
