Something Borrowed - Susie Finkbeiner - Bog

"In "A Heart in Disguise," a young seamstress joins the U.S. camouflage corps during WWI and is assigned to sew camouflaged suits for snipers. Little does she know the threat of war isn't just overseas . . . until she overhears a threat against her beloved city. With the help of a wounded soldier, who happens to be her childhood friend, they investigate the mystery while a romance blooms. In "A Letter to Eli," while the rest of the world rages in war, Bette and Alice are lifelong friends working hard to live the tiny apartment dream in New York City. Eddie, Alice's fiancâe is bravely serving at sea, but Bette ended things with her boyfriend Eli before the ravages of war could take him from her. It's a lovely, pitter-patter life for these young women, until a letter comes revealing that, in a moment of well-meaning deception, Alice wrote to Eli on Bette's behalf. Now, with Eli back in the states, severely wounded, Bette must see if the love spun from innocent passion will stand up to the reality of tragedy. In "A Daffodil in the Dress," Kate and Ike have worked together at Finch Family Books for three years. But one spring day all that changes when Ike goes out of his way to bring a flower to Eloise, Kate's five-year-old daughter. That's when Kate realizes that Ike has feelings for her beyond friendship, and that she requites his affections. But can Kate risk falling in love when she has a child to raise? What happens when outside pressures threaten to barge in and try to sway Kate one way or the other?"--
