As spring wildflowers bloom in the American midwest in 1917, Lorraine McQuarrie envisions those same flowers rising from the trenches in war-torn France. Ever a fearless young woman, Lorraine knows the Great War is coming for her nation and her loved ones. She would brandish a helmet and uniform if she could; anything to save her youngest brother from the fate of a German rifle.
It’s not until General John Pershing calls upon women to join the war effort that Lorraine finds her opportunity. For the first time, American women will join their husbands, sons, and brothers at the front lines. With the skills needed and a heart for adventure, Lorraine joins the U.S. Army Signal Corps and begins her journey as a Hello Girl.
Fighting against her sister's disapproval and a rigorous training program, Lorraine is determined to make it to France and discover her purpose in the process. Despite the evils of war, she finds that there is much more to life, love, and sisterhood than her homestead on the Kansas prairie raised her to believe.
