Summary, Etc. "Sometimes true heroism is found in dreams deferred. Charlotte, NC. 1918. Broadway darling Calla Connolly had it a rising career on the stage and a loving fiance, a fellow stage actor. But after his tragic death early in the war, Calla is touring the American training camps, hoping to convince General Pershing to let her tour the French front to cheer the men and honor her fiance's memory. But her hopes are dashed when she contracts Spanish flu while performing at Camp Greene. While convalescing, Calla inadvertently overhears a sensitive Army secret and is ordered to remain at Camp Greene for the duration of the war while her former mentor and rival steals her tour out from under her. Having no choice but to stay at the camp, she becomes the resident performer and forms attachments to several musician soldiers. When she falls in love with the man responsible for trapping her at camp, the mission she's sworn to keep secret threatens the men she's come to care for. Calla is forced to decide what her dreams are worth -- and if the future she never expected might only be possible if she lets those dreams go."-- Goodreads.
