A wedding dress links three wartime romances

Three novellas connect through a wedding dress, carrying its story across generations and wartime settings. The available descriptions place one romance during the Great War, where New York seamstress Clara Westlake works in the US “Camouflage Corps” and turns to childhood friend Marcus Reeves after hearing a threat no one believes. Another begins in World War II-era New York, with lifelong friends Bette and Alice trying to build their lives amid the conflict. Together, the collection brings romance, friendship, sewing, and the effects of war into a shared historical frame.
