The Loves of Natalie Greenbaum Book III

by K.J. McElrath

Overview

Now a war widow with a daughter to raise, Natalie Greenbaum and her daughter Peggy return to Port Lewis and her family. Over the next several months, Natalie does her best to adapt to life on the Home Front. Reunions with old friends and a fond lover are bittersweet and brief, as the war changes the courses of people's lives, even on the Home Front.

Attacks on American soil that place her life and those of her loved ones in jeopardy motivate Natalie to enlist. However, she is classified "4F," and rejected by both the WACS and the WAVES. Natalie eventually signs up with the USO as an entertainer.

After a short reunion with her former lover Esther in New York, Natalie and her accompanist, Pops, are sent overseas. They spend several months in England, touring military bases and entertaining military personnel. While staying in an English village near an Army Air Force base where her brother is serving, she meets up once again with her lover, the aviatrix Bonnie. For several months, they resume their affair off and on as they are able. They after a few idyllic weeks together during the autumn of 1944 in a newly-liberated Paris, Natalie and Bonnie part yet again. Natalie and Pops then leave for the "Foxhole Circuit," taking their show to the troops in the combat zones.

Natalie finds that while Hitler's Germany may be on the run, it is not finished. It isn't over by a long shot...and for part of her soul, the war may never end.
