Semper Fidelis

by M L Brummett

Overview

Eighteen-year-old Virginia leaves her childhood Idaho farm with her sister Nellie, and they head to California to support the fighting forces of the United States. Nothing about their promising new life, working as war plane riveters, turns out as planned. Neither girl intended to fall in love, but who can really plan for love? Virginia fights heart wrenching battles when she has to choose between her fun-loving sailor and her down-to-earth marine. Nellie s sailor is charming; he s her true love, but his involvement in the secret service turns her life upside down.

Innocence was blown out of the trenches during WWII. It didn t matter if it was the trenches of war, or the trenches of love. It was a time to find out what you were made of; a time to learn who you were. Bravery and valor were braided between flesh and soul.

Some people call them the greatest generation. Maybe they were simply the generation of greatness. It was everything for God, Country, and Family or nothing at all. True love fell easily, and it stayed where it landed because they were always faithful Semper Fidelis.

About the Author

M.L. BRUMMETT, an American writer, believes a good book should be a treasure trove of adoration in the reader s hands. A good novel should cast the reader into another era and give them the opportunity to live adventures outside of their own lives. She believes the reader should know each character personally in a good piece of literature, and no matter how often the reader opens their favorite book, they should find something comforting and familiar that will enrich their lives. Her passion for writing developed early in her lifetime. As a child she carried a notebook with her to jot down characteristics of everyday people to use as material for writing projects; a practice she still does today.

Outside of her passion for writing, Brummett chose a profession in human resources which provides another creative outlet by creating training and educational programs. She holds a BA, in Business Administration, and is completing her MBA in Human Resource Leadership. Additional credits include a season of songwriting in Nashville, Tennessee. She extended her skills in the music industry into promotions and band management. She owned a country music show in Louisville, Kentucky, which spotlighted local talent.

Brummett currently resides in Springfield, Missouri, with an abundance of friends and special family. She is a member of the Springfield Writers Guild.
