Disheartened by the realities of war, will Julia abandon the pursuit of her beloved? Will her naive "gift scheme" distract her from recognizing her true “great love?” From Philadelphia to war-torn France, follow Julia as she transitions from unworldly young woman to compassionate volunteer.

Catholic Historical Romance

If it wasn't for the catholic parts of this story, I'd rate this book as 5 stars!
The narration was superb! The story idea intriguing. The historical aspects seem accurate to my knowledge. The story interesting and entertaining. But, I believe the catholic faith is false. I kept thinking, well at least we're praying to the same God, but we're not. Any God who is on equal if not lesser standing than "Mother Mary" or any of the patron saints is not the same God that I know from the Bible.
