Publisher Description
BRAND NEW from Norma Curtis and inspired by real events, this gripping WW2 timeslip is a deeply moving and heartbreaking tale of love, loss, and second chances. 💗📚💔
Wales, 1944.
In the heat of a wartime summer, black GIs stationed in the small town of Nant gather at the Rivoli Ballroom, where music and dancing offer a brief escape from the uncertainty of tomorrow. When local girl Ginny Lloyd asks American soldier Samuel Grant to dance, an unforgettable connection is born – one that will endure long after the war tears them apart.
Fifty years later, Nant is preparing to honour the men it never forgot with a commemorative plaque. Ginny, now married but still haunted by what was lost, reaches out to Dora Grant in Georgia – the mother of the soldier she once loved, and the keeper of a promise made long ago.
As the past begins to stir once more, long-buried secrets threaten the fragile peace Ginny has built, forcing her to confront the consequences of choices made in the aftermath of war – and the promises that were never meant to be broken.
A sweeping, emotional timeslip novel, A SOLDIER'S GOODBYE is a poignant reminder that even after decades, the heart remembers every step.
