Publisher Description
A 2019 Readers' Favorite Finalist!
Not all of war's destruction takes place on the battlefield.
Violet's heart flutters from the scarlet fever she survived as a child, and it beats faster at the sight of John Smith, the man she plans to marry. America is entrenched in WWII, and when John enlists, Violet is certain she won't ever forgive him for dashing their dreams. As the realities of war slowly overtake her life, Violet's days are filled with uncertainty and grief. She struggles to maintain her faith in John, as the world as she knows it, crumbles.
Becoming Mrs. Smith is the inspiring, and at times, heartbreaking story of a woman's struggle to reclaim what she lost. War stole the man she loves, and childhood illness weakened her heart--perhaps beyond repair. While guns rage in Europe, the war Violet faces at home may be even more devastating.

Becoming Mrs. Smith by Tanya E Williams
While on vacation in Portugal I had the pleasure of reading this novella written by Tanya E Williams. This novella unexpectedly pulled at my heart strings. I couldn’t put the book down. Each page paints a such a vivid picture of the characters and their settings. In many ways I identified with the main character Vi, seeing my younger self in her. This novella both warmed and saddened my heart and it is so worthy of a Sunday afternoon read. I loved it!
