Waterloo Station — Emily Grayson

Emily Grayson, author of The Gazebo, weaves the story of a passionate love affair ignited at Oxford University in 1938--only to see the lovers torn apart by WWII.
England. Summer, 1938. An adventurous and beautiful young American woman arrives at Oxford University, never expecting the ways that her life--and the entire world--will soon change. When Maude Latham falls in love with her married literature tutor, Stephen Kendall, she learns that the Romantic poets had it right: love is eternal. But after Stephen joins the Royal Navy and disappears, and Maude finds herself living through the war years as a trauma nurse in a hospital, she has to question everything she's been taught about both Stephen and love itself. In her latest novel, Grayson enters new territory, following two lovers through a dramatic period in history, and through a passion that is timeless.
