Following the death of her beloved mother, twelve-year-old Tess Rainbow cares for her brother and father. Until one day, when a small plane crashes near the Rainbow family business and everything is turned upside down. The pilot inside is the dashing young Moray Tann, the son of her father's sworn enemy . . .

It's World War II and the Rainbow family leave their lives behind and move to a coastal Scottish airbase. Amidst the instability of her new life, Tess finds relief in writing. But this solace is quickly interrupted after an unexpected reunion with Moray. However, he's not the only one now vying for Tess's heart.
Torn, she must choose between the family she cares so deeply for and her first true love. Will she follow her heart or her home?
