The One True Love of Alice-Ann

Living in rural Georgia in 1941, sixteen-year-old Alice-Ann has her heart set on her brother''s friend Mack; despite their five-year age gap, Alice-Ann knows she can make Mack see her for the woman she''ll become. But when they receive news of the attack on Pearl Harbor and Mack decides to enlist, Alice-Ann realizes she must declare her love before he leaves. Though promising to write, Mack leaves without confirmation that her love is returned. But Alice-Ann is determined to wear the wedding dress her maiden aunt never had a chance to wear--having lost her fiance in the Great War. As their correspondence continues over the next three years, Mack and Alice-Ann are drawn closer together. But then Mack''s letters cease altogether, leaving Alice-Ann to fear history repeating itself.

As time passes and their friendship develops into something more, Alice-Ann wonders if she''ll ever be prepared to say good-bye to her one true love and embrace the future God has in store with a newfound love.
