Natalie knew serving as a combat nurse would break her heart in unimaginable ways. Serving in Northern Ireland shortly after America entered the war, all she can dream of is getting the injured home safely for Christmas. Pierce always assumed he wouldn't make it home from war - he just hadn't imagined enemy fire would land him at a medic camp. It took him mere moments to fall for his beautiful nurse, and suddenly he wanted to return home, not the battle on the Atlantic. The holidays stop for no man, and all the pair want is to see themselves safe at Christmas.
