Over 3,800 5-Star Reviews!
This New York Times bestselling novel delivers an exhilarating World War II epic about a young woman’s heroic service with the Red Cross on the front lines of battle.
Irene Woodward escapes an abusive fiancé in New York and enlists with the Red Cross, where she quickly bonds with Dorothy Dunford, a sharp-witted Midwesterner. Together, they join the Donut Dollies—an elite group of women driving Clubmobiles to the front lines, offering weary soldiers coffee, donuts, and a lifeline of connection before combat.
After D-Day, Irene and Dorothy journey through war-torn Europe, facing harrowing danger from the Battle of the Bulge to the liberation of Buchenwald. Amidst the chaos, Irene finds healing in Dorothy’s friendship and a romance with a brave American pilot named Hans. But as the war intensifies, so does her desperate hope that all three will make it out alive.
