Summary:

Virago
(n.) a strong or brave woman; a woman who demonstrates exemplary and heroic qualities

-----------------------
 
Resilient, intelligent and kind hearted, Rosalie Marseille has a bright future ahead of her; but what happens when war threatens her country? Rosalie is just 15 years old when the war breaks out and 17 when it comes to America. She's heard the stories of her parents in the Great War, so when the United States Government asks for assistance from all those able to serve, Rosalie is determined to help. She signed up for the Nurse Corps, however, she finds herself a lot closer to the frontline than she had first hoped.
