Synopsis

U.S. naval officer Donald Storey was not just fighting for his country in World War II—he was fighting to come home to his love, Margery.

When Lisa Franco stumbled upon the couple’s lost love letters in an antique shop, she had no idea of the story she was about to uncover.

In My Dearest Darling: Letters of Love in Wartime, Donald’s and Margery’s intimate and heartwarming correspondence chronicles their romance, personal sacrifices, hopes, and dreams, and gives a firsthand account of historical events as they unfolded overseas and at home. Their letters also provide a unique window into the social norms, culture, and shifting family dynamics during war.

What starts as a long-distance military couple’s struggle during their separation throughout the frightening uncertainty of World War II becomes a road map of their destiny through letters, historical annotations, and the Storey family themselves.

Donald and Margery’s experience is one of many true stories about couples in World War II, but their unique journey will draw the reader in from the first “My Dearest Darling.”
